Amanda Blok , BACP

Amanda Blok is a UK-based, licensed therapist who brings a calm, empathetic presence to helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, family conflict, and the impacts of trauma and abuse. With a background that includes BACP credentials - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she draws on that professional training to offer steady, informed support.

Amanda creates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed and explored. She focuses on building trusting therapeutic relationships that allow difficult subjects to be faced at a person’s own pace. Her approach emphasizes understanding each individual’s experience and working collaboratively to find practical ways forward.

Recognizing that reaching out for help takes courage, Amanda supports clients through that first step and beyond, helping them pursue a more fulfilling and happier life. Whether addressing acute crises or ongoing challenges, she aims to help people feel heard, understood, and better equipped to manage the pressures they face.

Client-Centered Care and Accessible Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience, with the therapist offering empathy, acceptance, and reflective listening to help clients explore feelings and make their own choices. This approach is helpful for issues such as anxiety, relationship strains, grief, and coping with life changes because it prioritizes the client’s perspective and pace.

Amanda works collaboratively with each person to determine which therapeutic approach fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Deciding on the best path is an ongoing conversation - the therapist and client review what is working and adjust together to find the right fit.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits, or those living far from local services. These options make regular access to licensed professionals and therapists easier, allowing continuity of care and the ability to receive support from familiar surroundings when that helps the therapeutic process.
