Alexandra McStea

Available for face to face sessions on a Tuesday afternoon and evening. 

Online session availability most weekdays after school/evenings. 

Hi! I'm Alex, a warm, passionate and inclusive person-centred counsellor specialising in working with children, young people and young adults.

I believe that every child and young person deserves the right to mental health support no matter what, and I feel privileged to be part of that support for young people.

I aim to create a non-judgemental, safe and empowering space for children and young people to explore any issues they may be facing. I enjoy building trusting therapeutic relationships with those I work with and am proud to walk alongside them on their counselling journey.

I offer sessions either face to face or over video call.

I feel the most important part of therapy is building a trusting relationship, and this is especially true when working with children and young people. 

I use a variety of counselling techniques, grounded by person-centred therapy, to support children and young people to identify and explore their emotions, as well as building resilience and problem-solving skills.

I like to spend time getting to know each other in sessions using a variety of ways. Alongside traditional talking therapy, I also often include playing games or doing a creative activity, always tailored to the young persons needs and emotional ability.

If you would like any more information about sessions and working with me, I offer a free video or telephone consultation for up to 30 minutes, to see if I'm the right fit for you or your child.

 Just drop me an email, text or call me to book in for a consultation.
