About Aminah

Aminah Teague is a counsellor with four years' experience supporting people who feel anxious or overwhelmed. She meets clients where they are and helps them make sense of thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Conversations focus on what is happening day to day and practical steps that can reduce stress and worry.

She encourages people to drop the mask and speak openly about what they are experiencing. Sessions look at patterns such as reading too much into interactions, being constantly wound up, or feeling unmotivated.

Background and approach

Aminah aims to help clients recognise how they operate and find ways to cope that fit their lives. Her approach combines person-centred listening with practical tools. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to challenge unhelpful thoughts, solution-focused techniques to set attainable goals, and somatic work to notice how the body holds tension.

Motivational interviewing is used when people want support to change habits or address addictions. Aminah has worked with a broad range of concerns including stress, relationship worries, low self-esteem, depression, grief and trauma. She also supports people dealing with life changes, parenting strain, career decisions and chronic health difficulties.

Her background includes dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, body image and codependency. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or messaging. Aminah describes the first meeting as a chance to understand your immediate needs and agree practical next steps.

The aim is to help people feel more able to cope and clearer about their choices.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Aminah uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping you find your own solutions; it is useful when someone needs space to speak and be heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques for reducing anxiety and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Aminah will work with you to clarify goals and try methods that match what you want to change. Together you can adjust the balance of listening, skill-building and body-focused work so sessions feel useful and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, quick problem-solving or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
