About Amanda
Amanda Le Tissier is a counsellor with 25 years of experience. She uses practical talking therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. Amanda works online and by phone, offering different ways to connect depending on what feels most comfortable.
Amanda draws on a mix of approaches, with a strong emphasis on cognitive behaviour techniques and emotionally-focused work. She aims to help people notice unhelpful thinking, build new habits and strengthen emotional connection with themselves and others.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and goal oriented when that suits the person. Her background includes supporting people through trauma, abuse, bereavement and addictions. She also helps with sleeping problems, anger and motivation, and with issues around self-esteem and confidence.
Amanda describes recovery as a process where small changes add up over time. She believes clients bring important knowledge about their own lives. The counselling relationship is collaborative - Amanda listens, offers tools and checks progress together.
Practical exercises and simple reflections are commonly used between sessions to keep momentum. Amanda offers video calls, telephone appointments and live chat or messaging sessions. These options let people choose what fits their routine and comfort.
The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online therapy
Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT often involves simple exercises and practical tasks between sessions to build new habits and improve mood.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to look at feelings and attachment patterns that affect relationships and self-understanding. EFT helps people name emotions, understand their impact and practise different ways of responding in close connections.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and adapt methods so they fit the individual. This is a collaborative process and plans may shift as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, so people can pick what suits their life. Video is good for deeper face-to-face work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins, journaling-style reflection or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caring duties and daily routines.
