Amanda Le Tissier, NCPS

Amanda Le Tissier is a United Kingdom licensed therapist with 25 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, loss and grief, pet bereavement, addiction, anger, relationship difficulties, motivation problems, low self-esteem, and confidence challenges. She practices in an integrated way, combining techniques from several therapeutic schools while placing particular emphasis on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Cognitive Analytical Therapy. She is also an Inner Child practitioner and holds the NCPS credential, a professional counselling and psychotherapy qualification that indicates formal training and membership in a professional body.

Amanda believes that each person is the expert in their own story and that strengths already exist within everyone to help address life challenges. She views difficulty as a catalyst for change and works alongside clients to identify and build the skills and insights needed to achieve their goals. Her approach is collaborative and paced to the individual, offering practical strategies as well as space to explore deeper emotional material.

Amanda’s decision to become a therapist was shaped by her own experiences of trauma and loss, which inform her empathetic and grounded style. She offers sessions by video, telephone, live chat, or messaging to accommodate different needs and preferences. Taking the first step can feel brave, and Amanda aims to provide steady support throughout the therapeutic journey.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It offers practical tools to manage symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and problematic coping strategies by building new skills and clearer thinking. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action while learning to live alongside difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for stress, avoidance, and motivation challenges by promoting psychological flexibility. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist listens deeply and reflects the client’s experience, creating a supportive space for personal insight and self-directed growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amanda works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting interventions over time so the therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility constraints, or those who prefer remote access. These options make it possible to receive consistent support from licensed professionals in ways that suit different lifestyles and communication preferences.
