About Cherisse
Cherisse Amusa helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship strains. She supports individuals facing trauma, attachment difficulties, sleep problems and struggles with self-esteem. She also works with career concerns, compassion fatigue and life changes.
Cherisse uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She listens and helps clients spot unhelpful patterns. Together they set small goals and try simple skills that can be used between appointments.
Her background includes work in criminal justice and a variety of clinical settings.
Background and approach
These roles included not-for-profit organisations, independent practice and employee assistance programmes. That experience shaped her interest in trauma and attachment issues. Cherisse holds NCPS credentialing and completed a Master of Science in Psychology.
She has six years of clinical experience working with adults in one-to-one and group formats. She draws on several therapy approaches to meet different needs. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Cherisse provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling is arranged afterwards.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test them against real life. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems because it teaches straightforward strategies to change thinking and behaviour.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Cherisse works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s goals, needs and preferences. That may mean combining approaches or trying a short series of techniques to see what helps most.
Online therapy offers different ways to meet the same therapeutic aims. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit people who need a lower-bandwidth option or a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick reflections, checking in between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family life and travel.
