About Aminah
Aminah Teague is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. Aminah also supports those managing addictions, grief, parenting challenges and career uncertainty. She lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, autism and body image concerns.
Her style is direct and practical. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns that keep repeating. She helps clients name unhelpful thoughts, understand how they respond in relationships, and build small steps to feel steadier day to day.
Aminah draws on client-centred ways of working and evidence-based tools such as cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused strategies. She also uses motivational interviewing to support change and somatic methods to attend to how stress shows up in the body. These methods are used to help with specific problems like anxiety, addiction or coping after a loss.
In a typical session she invites honest conversation and reflection. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what practical changes might help. She pays attention to both feelings and daily actions, and to how the body reacts under pressure.
People often come for help when they feel stuck after university or at the start of a career, when relationships feel uncertain, or when mood and motivation are unpredictable. Aminah asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book an initial session to discuss goals and next steps.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Aminah commonly uses client-centred ways of working and cognitive behavioural techniques. Client-centred work focuses on listening carefully and responding to what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and to explore concerns in their own words. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. These techniques are practical and useful for anxiety, low mood and problems with motivation.She also uses motivational interviewing in sessions to support people who want to make changes. This approach helps uncover personal reasons for change and builds momentum through small achievable steps. Together with the client she will discuss which methods suit their goals and preferences and adapt plans as needed.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm what options are offered before booking. Many people find online work helpful for fitting therapy around study, work and travel because it can reduce travel time and make scheduling easier. Others prefer a shorter phone check-in when they need to fit something into a busy day. The therapist will talk through practical arrangements and help choose the format that fits the client’s everyday life.
