Aimee Cooke , NCPS

Aimee Cooke welcomes individuals who are taking the often-difficult step of seeking support and offers integrative counselling tailored to each person’s needs. As a registered Integrative Therapist practising in line with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) ethical framework, she adapts her approach to fit the individual and the specific type of support required.

Aimee believes many people come to therapy searching for understanding and answers that are already within them. Her role is to provide a supportive, holding environment in which clients can explore their experiences and discover those answers for themselves. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is central to her work, and she focuses on listening without judgment, responding with kindness, and moving at a pace that feels safe and considerate for each client.

By creating a space where clients feel emotionally held, Aimee aims to help them express thoughts and feelings, develop greater self-awareness, and open the possibility for meaningful change and a more balanced life. She looks forward to getting to know the people she works with and supporting them through their journey.

Approaches and Benefits of Online Therapy

Aimee draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and emotional response - this approach can be helpful for people struggling with attachment issues, abandonment, or intimacy-related concerns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathetic listening and meeting clients where they are, supporting self-directed growth and stronger self-esteem. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another approach in her toolkit that helps people identify and work with emotional responses in relationships to improve communication and connection.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Aimee works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and will help determine which methods are likely to be the best fit for their situation. This collaborative stance supports a personalised plan that evolves as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone allow for face-to-face conversation without travel, while live chat and text-based messaging provide options for shorter or more frequent check-ins. These formats make it easier for people to fit therapy into busy lives and to access licensed professionals from their own locations.
