Aimee Cooke
Compassionate counsellor focused on relationships and healing
About Aimee
Aimee Cooke is a counsellor who helps people make sense of difficult feelings and life changes. She follows the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society code of ethics and brings three years of clinical experience to her work. Aimee focuses on building a steady, respectful relationship where clients feel listened to and treated with kindness.
She believes clients already hold many of the answers and that counselling is a space to find them.
Background and approach
Sessions move at a pace that suits the individual, so people who feel overwhelmed can take small steps. Aimee listens without judgement and aims to respond in ways that feel genuinely supportive. Her practice attends to issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and trauma and abuse.
She also works with concerns around relationships, intimacy, self-esteem and coping with major life changes. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment, codependency, communication and the aftermath of separation or domestic violence. Aimee draws on attachment-based, client-centred, emotionally-focused and trauma-informed ideas alongside psychodynamic thinking.
In practical terms this means she pays attention to relationship patterns, emotions in the room and past experiences that shape current difficulties. The goal is to increase self-awareness and create more helpful ways of managing emotions and relationships. Sessions can suit people who want a calm, patient listener who will help them explore feelings and make gradual changes.
Aimee invites clients to work collaboratively and to set goals that feel realistic for daily life.

How Aimee's approaches work online
Aimee uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating. This helps when intimacy, abandonment or repeated relationship problems are a concern. Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and supporting the client's own pace and choices, which helps people feel heard and understood.She also draws on emotionally-focused therapy to notice and work with strong feelings in the room and to help people change unhelpful interaction patterns. Together these approaches aim to increase self-awareness and change patterns that keep someone stuck, especially around relationships and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Aimee will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She will check in about what helps and adjust the way sessions are run as therapy progresses.
Online sessions can be flexible and practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into busy days or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messages suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while still working with experienced therapists.
