Mandy Hedges, BACP, NCPS

Mandy Hedges offers a warm, person-centred approach to therapy. She draws on 15 years of experience to create a calm space where people can talk through worries and difficult feelings. Mandy aims to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and find practical ways to feel better day to day.

Her work blends Client-Centred Therapy with cognitive behavioural ideas and reflective, exploratory methods inspired by Jungian thinking. That mix helps when someone wants both straightforward coping tools and time to understand deeper themes in their life. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals so progress can be felt between sessions.

Mandy supports people with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and addiction. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, body image, eating issues, chronic illness and recovery from trauma. Other areas she works with include attachment and abandonment concerns, control and communication problems, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. Her qualifications include membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and NCPS. These credentials reflect her professional standing in the field.

People who choose Mandy can expect a collaborative and down-to-earth way of working. She encourages practical steps alongside reflective conversation. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Therapy approaches and how they work online

Mandy combines Client-Centred Therapy with cognitive behavioural ideas and solution-focused work in a way that can suit remote counselling. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and helping people feel heard, which supports exploration of feelings and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers practical coping strategies for anxiety, depression and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and short-term goals to help people notice progress quickly.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mandy works collaboratively to find what fits each person's needs and preferences. She will discuss options, try methods that seem suitable, and adjust the approach as goals evolve.

Session formats are not specified in this profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are important practical considerations. Many people find remote sessions a convenient way to continue steady therapeutic work alongside daily life.
