About Aminah

Aminah Teague is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of experience and a BACP accreditation. She focuses on helping people who feel constantly wound up, unsure about their reactions, or stuck repeating old patterns. Aminah writes plainly and makes space for honest conversation so worries feel easier to work through.

People often come because anxiety, low mood or relationship difficulties are getting in the way of day-to-day life.

Background and approach

Aminah also supports clients with issues such as parenting stress, grief, trauma and struggles with self-esteem. She uses practical approaches so conversations lead to useful steps and clearer thinking. Her style is calm and direct.

Sessions aim to help people notice how they respond to situations and develop ways to change those patterns. Aminah encourages small, manageable experiments between sessions to build confidence and momentum. She draws on methods like cognitive behavioural tools to look at thoughts and feelings, client-centred listening to follow what matters most to the person, and solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals.

Somatic ideas are used when physical tension is part of the problem. Contact begins with a short questionnaire and scheduling that suits the client. Aminah works online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging, which can suit people juggling work, childcare or busy days.

Conversations are practical, steady and paced to each person's needs.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help

Aminah often uses client-centred work, which prioritises listening and following what matters most to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their own priorities.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, a hands-on method for spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and repetitive worry patterns. Motivational interviewing is another tool she uses to help people find their own reasons and motivation to change, especially when making difficult personal shifts.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client's goals, needs and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when it suits the client. Phone sessions can be a quicker check-in or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and messaging fit people who prefer typing or need flexible timing around busy days. These formats can make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work and other commitments.
