About Amanda

Amanda Lacey helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with grief and family difficulties. Amanda presents as a calm, encouraging presence for men seeking clearer direction and steadier wellbeing.

Amanda has three years of professional experience and holds NCPS. She aims to make sessions straightforward and approachable. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small steps that can make daily life easier.

Her work often includes practical talking and exercises drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness ideas. She also uses narrative and existential ways of looking at problems to help people reframe difficult stories about themselves.

Clients can expect a non-judgemental space where feelings and thoughts are named and worked through together. Amanda emphasises collaboration and helps people set realistic goals they can try between sessions.

Her approach suits people who want clear tools for managing mood and anxiety, and who want to explore meaning or identity issues that affect wellbeing. The focus is on helping each person find what works for them, step by step.

Approaches used in online work and what they offer

CBT - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It helps with anxiety, low mood and practical problems by teaching skills to change unhelpful patterns.

Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple attention practices. It can reduce reactivity to stress and improve emotion regulation in daily life.

Narrative Therapy helps people notice the stories they tell about themselves and consider alternative, more helpful perspectives. This approach can be useful when identity, meaning or life transitions feel stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try first, and adapts the plan as goals and needs become clearer. This is a shared process, not a fixed prescription.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use approaches like mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets in a practical, everyday way.
