About me and my therapy practice
My name is Alex and I’m a Mental Health Therapist with a Diploma in Integrative Counselling.
My therapeutic experience to date has been within the NHS, where have been privileged to have supported many individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds with a wide mix of therapeutic needs.
In addition to my therapeutic background, my professional experience spans corporate and start up business environments. In more recent years, I have been working in schools in a management role where my ability to understand the needs of both parents and children alike is critical.
I understand the impact of the pressures and stresses of life and the challenge in managing them whilst maintaining the every day.
Practice description
Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not yourself can be exhausting, especially when you are trying to manage everything on your own. Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and my aim is to offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to talk openly and be genuinely heard.
I work with people experiencing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, loss, and periods of feeling emotionally overwhelmed or disconnected. Sometimes clients come to therapy with a clear understanding of what is troubling them, while others simply know that something doesn’t feel quite right. Whatever brings you here, we can work together at your pace to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with compassion and curiosity.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is central to meaningful change. Feeling accepted without judgement can create the space to better understand yourself, develop greater self-awareness, and move towards increased self-acceptance and emotional balance.
My approach is rooted in person-centred therapy, which means I see you as the expert in your own life and experiences. Rather than telling you what to do, I will work alongside you with empathy, honesty, and care, helping you make sense of difficult emotions, build confidence, and feel more empowered in your life and relationships.
Alongside private practice, I also have experience working within a school environment, supporting and communicating closely with young people, parents, and staff.
Finding the right therapist is important, and I understand that making first contact can sometimes feel difficult. I welcome an initial conversation to help you decide whether I may be the right fit for you.
