Do you keep coming back to the same problem, and struggle to get yourself out? Have you tried lots of different things and feel it’s time to reach out for professional help? Perhaps life has thrown challenge after challenge at you, and you are reaching your limit. Perhaps there has always been a problem you’ve suppressed, and you now feel it’s time to get help for it. Or you would like some time and space to explore your past. You could be seeking help for yourself, or it could be for a loved one or a child - they need help and you also want to know how to help them.

Clinical Psychologist & BWRT Advanced Practitioner.
Are you a high-functioning woman exhausted by her own strength?
I work with two groups of women. Firstly, those navigating burnout, recovery from toxic or painful relationships, and complex trauma — women who are holding everything together on the outside while quietly falling apart inside. Secondly, women living with chronic or life-limiting illness: from the shock of diagnosis to treatment trauma, through medically-induced menopause, changes in body image and identity, and the relentless labour of caring for others while trying to hold yourself together.

I am a BABCP registered Psychotherapist. It is my goal to facilitate and communicate with my clients as best as they can to uncover the essence of concerning issues and those that may arise. These issues can be challenging and overwhelming. My experience has shown that using a non-judgmental, open and honest approach enables clients to understand themselves and their lives better after understanding how to communicate. This skill begins on day one of therapy and can be applied to various life situations. I am honored to hear clients speak about what matters to them most, and to help them reach their full potential.

Hi, I’m Amanda, a BACP-registered counsellor supporting primary-aged children (4–11) in Fareham, Hampshire. I work with children experiencing anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, school stress, friendship difficulties, family changes and more.
