Vanicha Mamon, BACP

Vanicha Mamon is a counsellor who draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people make sense of recurring patterns in their feelings and relationships. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and she brings four years of practice to her work. Vanicha aims to create a calm, empathetic space where people can talk through painful or confusing experiences.

She often helps people who are coping with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, or problems with self‑esteem. Practical concerns such as sleep, eating, addiction and anger are also common topics in her sessions. Vanicha also supports issues linked to identity, intimacy and bereavement, plus longer standing difficulties like ADHD or bipolar mood challenges.

Her approach pays attention to early relationships and how they shape current reactions. She combines psychodynamic perspectives with client‑centred listening and elements of cognitive behavioural thinking when it fits the person’s goals. Conversations aim to increase self‑awareness and reduce repeating patterns rather than offering quick fixes.

Vanicha adapts how she works to each person. Sessions may focus on understanding past influences, on changing present habits, or on managing strong emotions in the moment. She also uses mindfulness and existential ideas when people want to reflect on meaning or values.

Sessions are offered in English and can be carried out online for people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Getting started is straightforward: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session once matched.

How psychodynamic and practical approaches work online

Psychodynamic work looks at past relationships and repeated patterns to help people understand why they react the way they do now. This approach can be useful for long‑standing worries about identity, intimacy and recurring emotional responses. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and helping people find their own answers, which suits someone who wants a non‑directive, supportive space.

Cognitive behavioural techniques concentrate on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and can be used alongside deeper exploration to tackle anxiety, sleep or mood‑related habits. These approaches help with both understanding patterns and learning practical ways to change them.

Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferred ways of working and what feels most helpful, and then tailor sessions collaboratively. People often try a few approaches in early sessions and agree what to focus on together.

Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text‑based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video is useful for face‑to‑face conversation, phone is handy when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check‑ins and messaging can fit into busy schedules. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, travel or family commitments.
