Aimee Cooke, NCPS

Aimee Cooke is a counsellor who offers a warm, person-focused approach. She works within the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society framework and brings three years' experience to her practice. Aimee aims to make the first steps into counselling feel manageable and respectful.

Aimee tailors sessions to each person rather than using a single fixed method. She listens without judgement and responds with kindness. The work often focuses on everyday thoughts and habits that get in the way of feeling steady.

People come for many reasons, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and compassion fatigue. Aimee also supports those dealing with attachment or abandonment concerns, codependency, issues around commitment and communication, and the emotional effects of separation or family conflict.

Her way of working places the relationship at the centre. She creates a calm space for people to talk through difficult feelings and life changes, and to notice patterns that keep repeating. Sessions are paced to suit the person and aim to build self-awareness and clearer choices.

Aimee describes herself as a guide rather than an answer-giver. Her role is to help people find their own solutions and to work through thoughts, habits and feelings that make life harder. She looks forward to meeting people who want thoughtful, caring support.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Aimee uses approaches that centre relationships and emotional understanding. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current ways of relating and can help with trust, intimacy and attachment concerns. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person's perspective; the counsellor listens deeply and follows the person's pace to help them find their own answers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions in relationships and can help when communication or closeness feels difficult.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Aimee will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful based on the client's needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change as people learn more about their own thoughts, habits and reactions.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage. Ask about the available session types when you book so you can pick what suits your routine and comfort.
