About Amanda
Amanda Le Tissier uses a blend of practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression and addiction. Amanda is NCPS credentialed and has 25 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging for flexible support.
Amanda sees emotional pain as something that can change with steady, guided work. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centred and emotion-focused ideas.
How Amanda works
Sessions are straightforward and aim to build small, useful skills that can be used between meetings. Common areas she helps with include trauma and abuse, grief and loss, sleeping problems, anger and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing chronic illness and caregiving strain, body image worries, codependency and issues with attachment or abandonment.
Amanda works with a wide range of emotional and behavioural challenges and tailors her approach to each person. Her own life experience of overcoming trauma and loss informs a practical, empathetic style. Amanda encourages people to notice their strengths and to take manageable steps towards change.
The emphasis is on clear goals, simple tools and steady progress. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary depending on location and therapist availability.

Online support options
Practical therapy approaches for online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-led steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns by practising new ways of coping and testing out different actions; it can help with depression, anxiety and sleeping problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions and use that understanding to improve how they relate to themselves and others, which can be useful for relationship and attachment concerns.The right approach is usually decided together. Amanda will talk through the options and adapt methods to match a person's goals, preferences and the issues they want to address. That collaborative process helps make sure sessions feel relevant and doable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can fit short check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These formats help people access therapy around work, caregiving or mobility needs and allow steady progress without needing to travel.
