About Amanda
Amanda Osman uses a person-centred way of working to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and low mood. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings 12 years of professional experience to her practice. Amanda speaks English and provides therapy from the United Kingdom.
Her sessions focus on what matters to each person. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and helps them make sense of difficult thoughts and feelings.
How Amanda works
Conversations aim to build confidence, reduce shame, and restore a sense of control after distressing experiences. Internal Family Systems is part of her approach. That method helps people understand inner parts that influence behaviour and emotions.
Amanda uses it alongside client-centred work to help people reduce anxiety, manage symptoms of ADHD, and process trauma at a pace that suits them. She also supports people dealing with communication problems, loneliness, guilt, and women’s issues. Practical steps and gentle reflection are mixed in sessions so people can try small changes between meetings.
The overall goal is clearer thinking, improved self-esteem, and better day-to-day coping. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and book according to the therapist’s schedule. Sessions are run online by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and use a cancellable subscription model.

Approaches used online and why they help
Amanda works from a client-centred stance, which means sessions are shaped by what the person brings. The focus is on listening, reflecting, and helping people find their own solutions for stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties.She also uses Internal Family Systems, a way of understanding the different parts inside a person that drive feelings and reactions. This approach can be useful for processing trauma, reducing shame, and managing strong emotions by learning to relate differently to those parts.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amanda will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, needs and preferences. She will explain options and adapt the pace so people feel able to try new ways of coping.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues for deeper exchanges. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter, more frequent contact and can help people keep momentum between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
