When insight isn’t enough.
You might understand exactly why you feel the way you do and you might have talked about it at length – yet still something hasn’t shifted.
That’s not a failure of insight. Understanding something and being able to change it are often two very different things.
I’m Amanda Greenlees, a UKCP accredited psychotherapist with a focus on relationship psychotherapy. I work with couples and individuals, online and in-person, on the patterns that shape how we relate, to others and to ourselves. For individuals, I also offer EMDR, which can help shift things that talk therapy alone hasn’t been able to reach.
beyond insight
This is active, engaged therapy. I’ll work with you closely, curiously, and with real skill to help you bridge the gap between what you know in your head and what you actually feel and do.
Most of us know, at least partly, what we want to change. The harder question is why we can’t, and that’s rarely answered by thinking alone.
Many of the things that keep us stuck weren’t chosen. They were formed early, in the relationships that shaped us, and they live in us in ways we often don’t notice: the tightness we feel when conflict arises, the urge to withdraw when we feel unheard, the things we find hard to say even when we know we need to.
I work with the history or histories you bring and how these show up in how you relate to yourself and others now. When we attend to all of it together, something that felt fixed can begin to move.

What I offer
Couples & Relationship Therapy
London & Online
For couples caught in cycles they can’t shift alone — the recurring arguments, the growing distance, the sense that something between you has become harder to reach. We work with what’s happening beneath those moments: what gets triggered, why the same patterns keep returning, and what each person needs but finds hard to ask for or receive.

Individual Therapy
London & Online
For people wanting to understand recurring patterns in relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, life transitions, emotional difficulties and personal growth.
Many of the ways we relate to ourselves and others have roots in earlier experiences. Therapy offers a space to explore these patterns and develop new ways of responding.

EMDR & Somatic Approaches
London & Online
For individuals where something feels stuck at a level that talking alone hasn’t reached.
Drawing on EMDR and body-based approaches, we work with the nervous system as well as the mind – useful for trauma, anxiety, and patterns that feel deeply ingrained.
