About Amanda

NCPS. 25 years' experience. Amanda Le Tissier works with adults on common problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief and relationship difficulties. She uses a mix of approaches and draws mainly on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Cognitive Analytical Therapy.

Amanda describes herself as an integrated counsellor who uses techniques from several therapy schools. She also works with issues such as sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, motivation, trauma and abuse, and bereavement including pet loss. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and co-morbidity.

Her work combines short-term skills-based work with deeper reflective work. Sessions often include practical strategies people can use between meetings, as well as conversational time to look at patterns that keep problems going. She also uses inner child practice as part of this mix when it suits the person's needs.

Amanda says her own life experience of loss and trauma shaped her decision to become a counsellor. That background informs how she explains ideas and supports people through change. She aims to help clients identify existing strengths and build new coping strategies.

Sessions are offered in English and are arranged through the platform's booking process. The therapist works from the United Kingdom and does not accept international clients. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Amanda applies core approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that matter to them. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) works with feelings and relationship patterns and can help with communication and attachment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. She treats this as a collaborative process and checks in about how techniques are working as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of remote counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Different session arrangements suit different people, so please confirm current session options before booking. The aim is to make it easier to attend regular sessions while working on skills and patterns introduced in therapy.
