Amanda Le Tissier, NCPS

Amanda Le Tissier is a counsellor with 25 years of practice based in the United Kingdom. She draws on a blend of established talking therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and grief. Amanda aims to make sessions straightforward and practical for everyday life.

Amanda uses a flexible, integrated style that borrows techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and other approaches. She focuses on thoughts and everyday habits alongside emotions and relationships. Sessions often include simple, step-by-step techniques to break unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping.

Her lived experience of overcoming loss and trauma informs how she relates to people in the room. She describes clients as the experts in their own stories and supports them to use strengths they already have. The work tends to be collaborative and paced to individual needs.

Amanda has supported people with anger, sleeping difficulties, low self-esteem and communication problems. She also helps with longer term issues such as chronic health, caregiver stress and attachment questions. Practical tasks between sessions are offered when useful.

Sessions can use talking, reflective exercises and simple skill-building. She offers video, telephone and live chat or messaging as possible ways to connect, and asks people to confirm current session options before booking.

How Amanda uses online therapy and therapeutic approaches

Amanda draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based actions, which can be useful for stress, addiction patterns and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Amanda will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods might fit best. She aims to adapt the techniques to your situation so you can practise them between sessions and notice gradual changes.

Her biography lists video, telephone and live chat or messaging as possible ways to meet. If formats are important to you, confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when you need them, and reduce travel time so sessions can fit around routines.
