About me

Hello, I’m Alex, and I’m here to assist you in navigating life’s challenges with a bespoke approach to therapy.


Drawing from a fusion of training in various modalities, I tailor each session to suit your individual needs. Whether it’s through creative therapy, traditional talk therapy, or cognitive behavioural techniques, I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.


For children and young people (aged 8 and above), I create a lively yet professional environment, empowering them to express themselves and develop coping strategies. Sessions may vary in length for this age group, respecting their autonomy and privacy while collaborating with parents/guardians.


For adult clients, I integrate Person-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural, and Psychodynamic approaches. Embracing diversity, I offer an empathetic space to delve into past and present experiences, working alongside you rather than claiming expertise over your life.


Sessions typically last 50 to 60 minutes and can be conducted in person, via video, or over the phone, ensuring flexibility and accessibility. Your journey to self-discovery and healing starts here. Reach out via phone or email with any questions or to schedule a session. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together.
