Amanda Turner, BACP

Amanda Turner is a BACP-registered therapist based in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works from a person-centred stance that is warm, non-judgmental and straightforward, inviting each person to set the agenda for their own sessions. Amanda believes clients are experts on their own lives, so she gives space for them to lead the conversation while offering steady emotional support as they explore change and recovery.

In practice she helps people to map their life journey, name their thoughts and feelings, and gain clearer understanding of what might help. This collaborative exploration has proven useful across a wide range of concerns, including low mood, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, addictions, questions about sexuality and struggles with anger. Amanda frames her work to meet what the client wants to address rather than imposing a fixed plan.

She describes herself as approachable, open-minded and compassionate, and draws on client-centred therapy alongside cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques to tailor support. Amanda also notes that she has personal experience of some of life’s traumas, which informs an empathic style of listening. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she follows recognised professional standards while offering a safe, non-judgmental space for emotional release and reflection.
