Amanda Le Tissier, NCPS

Amanda Le Tissier is a counsellor registered with NCPS with 25 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief and anger. She also supports people who struggle with sleep, self-esteem, motivation and relationship difficulties.

Amanda uses an integrated approach and draws on several psychotherapy methods. She relies mostly on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Cognitive Analytical Therapy while also using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when helpful. Her style is practical and focused on what a person wants to change.

In sessions she encourages clients to notice patterns, try specific skills and reflect on what works in everyday life. She describes people as the experts in their own stories and aims to build on strengths already present. Amanda also uses inner child work as one of her tools where it fits the client’s goals.

She offers conversational, down-to-earth sessions that break problems into manageable steps. Amanda says she became a counsellor after her own experiences of trauma and loss, and that informs her interest in grief and recovery. She supports people through setbacks and helps them practise different ways of responding to tension and anger.

Sessions can be used to map out clear goals, learn coping strategies and rehearse new ways of communicating. Before booking, people are advised to confirm the exact session options available for their needs and location.
