Going through a breakup or divorce can feel like standing in the middle of chaos with no map in sight. In that moment of uncertainty, it helps to know there is someone who has walked the road before you and can guide you forward with empathy, clarity, and lived experience. That is exactly what I bring as Amanda Barr, the Breakup and Divorce Mentor.
My Story
Life Experience Meets Professional Expertise
I am a proud mum of two young men and family has always been at the heart of who I am. My own journey through life has been filled with challenges and lessons that shaped me into the mentor I am today.
I live in Northern Ireland in beautiful North Down, but my services are offered online which means I can support you wherever you are. In the past I have lived in Huddersfield, Manchester, and Sussex, so I am no stranger to starting again in different places, whether under difficult circumstances or in moments of exciting change. That lived experience of adapting and rebuilding gives me a deep understanding of the challenges many of my clients face.
Beyond my work, I am an Irish dancer, a lover of exploring new places, and someone who finds freedom behind the wheel of my campervan, affectionately known as my “freedom wagon.” Nature grounds me, especially time spent near the shore or listening to the rain. One of my favourite restorative practices is floatation therapy, a space where I can pause, reflect, and reconnect with myself.
This mix of personal passions and life experience informs the way I support others. I know what it feels like to be at breaking point, and I also know the power of rebuilding a life that feels meaningful, joyful, and fully your own.
Why I Do This Work
Breakup and divorce are among the hardest transitions anyone can face. They challenge your confidence, your sense of identity, and your belief in what the future could look like.
My mission is to walk alongside women 30+ who are navigating these life changing moments. I provide the reassurance, clarity, and tools you need to move from overwhelm to possibility.
I am committed to ongoing personal development, which means my work is always rooted in the latest knowledge as well as in deep, lived understanding. Every client I work with benefits from a service steeped in both professional qualifications and real life experience.
