Amanda Cozens

I currently have availability in Cardiff on a Monday. 

As well as a diploma in person centred counselling my practice is also informed by my BA (Hons) in counselling where for three years I studied psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural, as well as gestalt therapy. I believe there is an art to good therapy but also that it must align with science and therefore have completed numerous trauma and somatic trainings.

Latest research seems to be pointing more and more toward how our physical health is directly impacted by our state of emotional and mental health. So with over 20 years experience of yoga, meditation and naturopathic nutrition, this knowledge can also be incorporated into our work together, especially around coping strategies.

I am trained under a number of therapeutic models and consider myself primarily a humanistic therapist due to its highly personalised nature, each person being one-of-a-kind, and wanting specific approaches, in a way that speaks to you directly.

Our sessions can support you finding ways to explore deeper thoughts and feelings in order for you to better make sense of them. This in turn can help you see situations, relationships and yourself more clearly. Becoming more conscious and able to tolerate feelings will provide you with the opportunity to make different choices and the changes you want. 

Our first session is free so that we can simply meet and talk through what you're looking and find out if we're a good fit for each other.
