About Mandy Clarkson
Mandy Clarkson is a compassionate therapist who brings a calm, supportive presence to the work of therapy. She trained primarily in Person-Centred therapy, a client-focused model that creates space for people to explore their concerns at their own pace, and has since developed an integrative practice that blends techniques from multiple therapeutic schools to suit each person's needs. Mandy's approach emphasizes self-awareness and personal growth, and she encourages gentle exploration of painful or challenging life experiences as a path toward greater life satisfaction and coping skills.
Mandy speaks from both professional training and lived experience, having supported many people through victories and losses across different stages of life. Her background includes work with men, women, families, young adults, teenagers, and children, and she focuses on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, parenting, anger, self-esteem, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, career matters, depression, and ADHD. Additional focus areas include abandonment, aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, caregiver stress, commitment and communication problems, and coping with disaster or loss.
Mandy holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her commitment to professional standards in counselling. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental space and works collaboratively with each person to identify practical solutions and support meaningful change. Mandy is currently accepting clients and provides therapy in English from the United Kingdom.

Integrative approaches for online therapeutic support
Client-Centred Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance in which the therapist creates an empathic environment for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. It is helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life transitions by fostering a stronger sense of self. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is practical and goal-oriented, often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete coping strategies. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that can reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation, which is useful for stress, anxiety, and managing difficult emotions.
Mandy approaches the choice of methods collaboratively - finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. She will work with each person to consider their needs, goals, and preferences and adapt techniques from these approaches to create a personalised plan.
Online therapy with Mandy can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support without travel, allow sessions to be arranged around daily commitments, and enable continued therapeutic work when in-person meetings are not feasible. Licensed professionals and therapists can effectively use these formats to provide meaningful, goal-focused care.
