AMANDA WORF

Hi,

I am an online counsellor and have always had a keen interest in different types of therapy. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is my specialist form of treatment as CBT allows me to work together with you, also applying the person-centred theory, helping you to understand your own thoughts and feelings and how this is reflected in your behaviour.

CBT helps a person who seeks therapy to continue applying the skills they learn during the sessions, throughout their whole life. For example, identifying, challenging and replacing self-defeating beliefs and promoting emotional well-being by reaching goals set by the Therapist and the Client, it's a partnership. It is important to identify and evaluate negative thoughts a person may experience regarding themselves, the world and the future. It is my aim with my client to break down problems into five parts and analyse the thoughts, feelings and behaviours to understand the impact they have. After which, I can share with the client techniques and skills to change unhelpful patterns of thoughts and behaviours.

I have worked with young people helping them deal with issues such as bullying at school/college or low self esteem issues. I have experience of working with people with anxiety, stress and depression. I am also experienced in helping people tackle phobias.

I am also trained in helping deliver well-being and mindfulness to my clients. If work, school or life in general is feeling too much, contact me and I can help you discover methods you can put in place to help you learn how to deal with every day pressures.

I also work in education and find my students to benefit from a calm and relaxed atmosphere. Mindfulness and Well being can help you in all walks of life.
