Amanda Hallam

With many years of experience working with couples, Amanda specialises in transforming conflict dynamics and supporting couples recovering from trauma or betrayal, including infidelity. Amanda is a warm, insightful, and trauma-informed therapist who is passionate about helping couples repair emotional bonds and rewire conflict cycles to rekindle their connection and make meaning of their journey. Her clients value her kindness and her ability to see them and guide them back to the strengths within their relationship. Many couples come to Amanda feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns of interaction—and leave with a renewed sense of closeness, understanding, and fulfilment. 

Amanda works holistically from a client focused, attachment perspective. Amanda draws on a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Theory, IFS and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
