Aimee Cooke, NCPS

Aimee Cooke is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She follows the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society code of ethics and uses an integrative approach that adapts to each person's needs. Aimee frames the therapy space as one where people can slow down, be heard and start to make sense of what matters to them.

Aimee prioritises a strong working relationship. She listens without judgment and responds with kindness. Sessions move at a pace chosen by the client, with attention to what feels safe and manageable.

People come to Aimee for many concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and intimacy-related issues. She also offers support around self-esteem, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue, and can help address attachment-related struggles such as abandonment, codependency and communication problems.

Her approach draws on Attachment-Based, Emotionally-Focused and Trauma-Focused ideas alongside Client-Centred and Psychodynamic work. In practice this means conversations that attend to feelings, relationship patterns and past experiences that shape current behaviour. Sessions aim to increase self-understanding and practical ways to manage difficult moments.

Aimee has three years of experience and holds the NCPS credential with practice aligned to that professional framework. If you are weighing up therapy, she invites you to take the first step and explore whether her way of working feels like a fit.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Aimee uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and ongoing relationship patterns influence feelings and behaviour; this approach helps people understand why certain relationship dynamics repeat and how to change them. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which focuses directly on feelings in close relationships and supports clearer emotional communication and stronger bonds. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used where past hurt affects present life, helping people to process traumatic experiences and reduce their current impact.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Aimee will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking in about what helps, and adjusting the focus as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering sessions when leaving the house is difficult. Online conversations can still focus on feelings, relationships and past events, and the therapist will help plan a way of working that suits your daily routine and priorities.
