About Amanda
Amanda Cooper is a counsellor who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy problems, addiction, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, depression, and life transitions. She also helps with sleep difficulties, anger, career challenges, ADHD, compassion fatigue and a wide range of related concerns.
Amanda uses a practical, person-centred style aimed at helping people feel heard and to make workable changes in day-to-day life. Amanda has worked as a full-time psychotherapy clinician for over 13 years.
Background and approach
For the last decade she has led short-term residential wellbeing programmes in Warwickshire where she provided direct therapy, supervised teams of therapists and shaped psychological programmes. That residential work often involved treating emotional presentations as signs of underlying trauma or environmental stressors and looking beneath surface behaviours to identify root causes.
Her academic background includes an MSc in Organisational Psychology from Birkbeck, University of London and a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from Arden University. She also holds a Diploma in Psychotherapy from the Human Givens Institute and a Graduate Certificate in Philosophy, Ethics, Justice and Memory from Harvard University. Amanda lists NCPS among her credentials.
In practice she offers proactive therapeutic support and trauma recovery processes alongside approaches that address anxiety, panic and stuck patterns. She uses narrative and memory-informed techniques to work with negative thoughts and phobias, and supports people with personal development and career transitions. Amanda aims to make therapy an uplifting, non-judgemental experience.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging when appropriate. Before a first meeting she often exchanges brief messages to make the best use of session time. Amanda encourages open conversation and will adapt how you work together to match your needs and preferences.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Amanda uses evidence-based techniques that adapt well to remote formats. Narrative and memory-focused work uses storytelling and guided recollection to address negative thought patterns and past events; this can help with anxiety, phobias and trauma-related memories by making sense of difficult experiences. Trauma recovery processes aim to reduce the hold of distressing memories and symptoms by working step by step on what feels manageable, often combining gradual exposure with techniques that reframe memories to reduce emotional charge.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process is ongoing, with adjustments made if something does not feel helpful or when needs change over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls replicate face-to-face discussion and are useful for in-depth work, while phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written communication, like brief daily check-ins or stepwise reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity between sessions.
