About Mandy
Mandy Elliott is a therapeutic counsellor with eight years of experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She works with adults and younger adults, including people aged 16 to 22 in higher education settings. Mandy focuses on common workplace and life stresses such as anxiety, depression, career strain and relationship issues, and she brings a calm, person-centred way of working to each session.
Mandy uses a person-centred (Client-Centred) core to her practice, and draws on elements of Transactional Analysis and Gestalt where useful. She combines talking, reflective listening and mindfulness-based ideas from her own Buddhist practice to help people notice unhelpful patterns and develop practical coping skills.
Sessions are aimed at helping people make sense of difficult events, improve self-worth and manage life changes. Mandy often supports people dealing with grief, trauma, attachment difficulties, blended family issues and long-term health problems. She also helps with sleep problems, anger and questions about life purpose.
Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Mandy encourages people to lead the pace of their work and to use their own strengths as part of the change process. She aims to create a space where people can talk through issues and begin to build confidence and self-understanding.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair people to her practice and sessions are scheduled around availability. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Mandy’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects understanding and follows the client’s pace so people can explore feelings and choices. This suits worries about work stress, low mood and relationship questions where being heard matters.Mandy also draws on Transactional Analysis ideas to help people notice communication and role patterns. That can be useful when difficulties show up at work or in family interactions and you want clearer ways to respond. Her use of Gestalt elements encourages noticing thoughts and bodily responses in the moment to support self-awareness and practical change.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Mandy discusses what feels most useful and adapts methods to match someone’s goals and preferences. She works collaboratively to try different ways of working until a good fit is found.
