Amanda Turner, BACP

Amanda Turner is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' professional experience. She works with adults who bring concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, addictions and anger.

Amanda uses a person-centred way of working. She asks clients to set the focus and leads sessions by following what people bring. That means conversations stick to what matters most to the client and move at their pace.

In practice she supports people to make sense of their feelings and thoughts. Sessions include talking through recent events, looking at patterns that keep repeating, and naming what people actually want to change. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness techniques to try out different ways of responding to difficult moments.

Many people come to Amanda after a loss or a life transition. That can show up as low mood, problems sleeping, difficulty with intimacy, anger that surfaces in close relationships, or struggles with addictive behaviour. She aims to help people gain clarity about their reactions and plan small, practical steps forward.

Amanda describes herself as approachable and straightforward. She has personal experience of life difficulties and says this shapes how she listens. Prospective clients in the UK should check session details and the service sign-up process before booking.
