About Amanda
Amanda Le Tissier is a counsellor who draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside practical talk-based approaches. She works in straightforward ways to help people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addiction and grief. Amanda uses simple, relational methods so people can start making small changes quickly.
She has 25 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential. Over the years she has supported people through trauma and abuse, loss including pet bereavement, anger and sleep problems.
Background and approach
She also helps with relationship difficulties, motivation, coping with life changes and a wide range of other concerns. Amanda combines elements from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred practice with Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas. Sessions focus on what is happening now, understanding difficult feelings, and testing out small steps that feel manageable.
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques when helpful. Her way of working is warm and direct. She listens, reflects what she hears, and helps people try new patterns in day-to-day life.
The work is paced to each person, with practical tools and short exercises used between meetings when useful. Amanda offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to suit their needs.
She does not work with international clients and provides therapy in English only.

Online support
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online therapy
Amanda blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions to improve how people relate to themselves and others, which can help with relationship tensions and grief. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing difficult thoughts and values-based action so people can make steady changes despite uncomfortable feelings. Client-Centred work emphasises being heard and understood, giving space for people to tell their story and find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and pace. That might mean trying short CBT-style exercises one week, then focusing on emotions and attachment patterns the next. The process is flexible and reviewed as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and noticing non-verbal cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, chat lets people check in between meetings, and messaging can support quick reflections or brief check-ins. These options help people access therapy around work, family and daily routines.
