About Mandy

Mandy Clarkson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and family concerns, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. She also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, anger, eating and sleeping problems, career strain, ADHD and major life changes. Mandy works in English and sees people in the United Kingdom.

She trained in person-centred therapy and now uses an integrative approach. That means she blends ideas from different therapies to meet each person's needs.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to be calm and practical, focusing on what matters most to the individual. Mandy uses straightforward methods such as talking through patterns, trying small practical changes, and exploring feelings that feel stuck. She draws on approaches including client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness, psychodynamic thinking and solution-focused strategies.

These are mixed to suit the person rather than applied in a fixed way. Her background includes six years of professional experience supporting people in a range of situations. Mandy describes herself as someone who brings life experience and empathy to the room, recognising how hard it can be to make a change.

She aims to create a steady, calming presence while working at the person’s pace. In sessions the focus is on building understanding and finding workable steps forward. People can expect a collaborative tone, practical ideas they can try between meetings, and space to reflect on painful or complex feelings.

Mandy encourages small, achievable goals that help people regain confidence and clarity.

Ways of working Mandy names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches that fit online therapy

Client-centred work focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. It helps people feel heard and begin to notice what they want to change. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and offers practical strategies to try between sessions, which can be useful for anxiety, sleep and mood problems. Mindfulness-based ideas teach simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and support emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss different methods and work with the person to decide what fits their goals and preferences. That collaborative decision is reviewed over time, so methods can be adjusted as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face to face without travel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins or people who want to write rather than speak. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, parenting and everyday life.
