Amanda Wiffen, BACP

Amanda Wiffen is a counsellor who aims to help people feel steadier when life becomes overwhelming. She works at a calm pace and gives space for clients to talk through things. Amanda offers resources between sessions when that is helpful and stays alongside people while they explore next steps.

She focuses on everyday stresses such as anxiety, low mood and feeling overwhelmed. She also supports people facing relationship strain, family conflict and the challenges of parenting. Amanda works with grief, workplace difficulties, ADHD and autism-related concerns as part of her practice.

Her approach is person-centred and warm. Sessions are shaped around what a person needs that week, with an emphasis on understanding attachment patterns and past experiences that still affect daily life. Mindfulness techniques and trauma-focused thinking are used when they suit the situation.

Amanda has three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She encourages people to take things at a manageable pace and to try simple tools between meetings.

People looking for support with ageing and geriatric issues, caregiver stress or coping with life changes may find her practical, steady style helpful. Prospective clients are invited to consider what they want from therapy and to start by completing the site's matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Amanda’s approaches translate to online work

Amanda uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect present-day feelings and reactions. This can help when someone wants to understand patterns in relationships, family dynamics or feelings of abandonment.

Her client-centred way of working means sessions follow what the person brings each week. That approach supports conversations about stress, parenting concerns or grief without putting pressure on a fixed agenda.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amanda will work collaboratively to decide what methods fit best with a person's needs and goals. She adjusts the pace and tools used as understanding grows, and she can suggest exercises to try between meetings.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care while balancing caregiving, work and other commitments.
