About Aminah
Aminah Teague is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She uses a calm, direct style to help people who feel anxious, overwhelmed or stuck. Aminah aims to make first contact straightforward and to create a space where it is easier to talk about hard things.
She often works with people who are constantly wound up, who read too much into interactions, or who feel unsure about how to cope.
Background and approach
Aminah helps clients notice patterns in thinking and behaviour so they can try different ways of responding. Sessions focus on small, practical steps as well as understanding what lies behind difficult feelings. Aminah draws on client-centred work to prioritise what matters to each person.
She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thoughts and actions, and somatic approaches to bring attention to how the body holds stress. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used when people want clearer goals or help finding next steps. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Aminah has four years of experience supporting people through issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, grief, trauma and addictions. Sessions are offered in English and take place online. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that fit around someone’s life.
Aminah aims to help people recognise what already works for them and build simple, realistic ways to cope and move forward.
How Aminah’s approaches translate to online therapy
Aminah uses client-centred work which focuses on listening and making space for what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and decide what to tackle first. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions to find small changes that can reduce anxiety or low mood. It is useful for worries, stress and unhelpful thinking patterns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That might mean focusing on body awareness and breath, working on thought patterns, or setting short-term practical steps to test between sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family life or mobility needs. They also allow people to continue work on difficult issues from a familiar place, while exploring both mental and bodily responses to stress with a therapist’s support.
