Alexandra Davidson

I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy for individuals experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. I work from my consulting room in Hackney.

My approach, which comes from a psychoanalytic framework, seeks to understand the conflicts, struggles, and patterns that may have felt confusing or overwhelming for a long time. By paying close attention to deeper feelings and thoughts - those often outside of awareness - we can begin to make sense of present difficulties, distressing emotional states, and loss of connection with oneself and others. Working in this way can be daunting, but over time it can bring about enduring and profound change to our internal worlds.

I have spent many years working across NHS services and charitable organisations. I have specialist experience in depression, trauma, anxiety disorders, as well as personality disorders. I currently work part-time as a specialist psychotherapist in a secondary care service in North East London

I offer an initial consultation of 90 minutes in which you can get a sense of how I work, and I can learn more about you. We can then decide whether I am the right person to work with.
