About Aminah

Aminah Teague is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years' experience. She works with people who feel anxious, overwhelmed or uncertain about what comes next in work or life. Her practice covers stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and self-esteem concerns, and she also supports people coping with major life changes and grief.

Aminah listens for patterns that keep a person stuck. She uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and reactions. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, manageable steps that can change daily life.

She draws on client-centred ways of working to follow each person's priorities, and on cognitive behavioural techniques to test and change thoughts that feel convincing but unhelpful. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help turning ideas into action. Somatic work can be introduced to notice how the body holds stress or tension.

Aminah often helps people unpack how relationships and early attachments affect current patterns. She also supports people dealing with addiction, trauma, chronic illness, parenting strain and career uncertainty. The aim is to give clear options rather than quick fixes, and to try approaches that fit the individual's situation.

Getting started is simple: clients complete a short matching questionnaire, then arrange a first session. Aminah works in English and is based in the United Kingdom. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Aminah uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow what matters most to the person, offering space to talk through concerns and priorities. This approach helps when someone is unsure where to begin and needs to be listened to without a fixed agenda.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps by breaking down thoughts and behaviours into small, testable steps. It suits people who want practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood or relationship worries. Motivational Interviewing is used to nudge action when someone has mixed feelings about change or recovery.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Aminah discusses options with each person and adapts methods based on their needs, goals and what feels manageable. The selection of techniques is collaborative rather than prescriptive.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options if that helps them engage more comfortably. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to make regular attendance easier.
