About Aimee
Aimee Cooke is a counsellor who welcomes people taking the first steps towards support. She uses an integrative approach guided by the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society code of ethics and works to meet each person where they are. Her style is warm and calm, with a focus on listening and creating a steady therapeutic relationship.
She believes clients already carry many of their own answers. Her role is to provide a holding space that helps people find those answers at a pace that suits them. Sessions aim to help people talk through stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
In practice she draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand relational patterns and on client-centred ways of working to keep the conversation focused on the person’s experience. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and trauma-focused methods are used where emotion and past events need careful attention. Psychodynamic thinking is sometimes included to explore how past experiences shape current behaviour.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She listens without judgement, reflects what she hears, and supports small steps towards clearer self-awareness. This can help with difficulties such as codependency, communication problems, abandonment worries, dissociation, and coping with major life changes.
With three years' experience and registration with NCPS, she practices in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
Approaches and how they work online
Aimee draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to help people see how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at how attachment styles influence closeness, trust and reactions in relationships and can help with issues like abandonment and codependency.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy which keeps the person’s experience at the heart of each session. That means the counsellor follows the client’s lead, listens carefully and reflects back what is said to build self-understanding and choice around next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aimee will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which ways of working to try. This collaborative process means methods can shift as understanding grows and different issues arise.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it simpler to maintain continuity of support during life changes, while the therapist and client agree how best to structure sessions to suit practical needs.
