Alice Stoddart

All therapy is about change. Perhaps you want to feel different, think differently and behave differently. Often, the difficulties we face in the present have roots in experiences from our past — even when we don’t consciously connect the two. My work focuses on helping you understand how earlier relationships, patterns, and life events continue to shape how you think, feel, and relate today. By bringing awareness to what’s been carried forward, we can create meaningful change in how you live now.

I want you to feel heard, valued and understood – supporting you to explore your perspectives and empowering you to experience change. I strongly believe that we all have the potential to change and move through difficulty and that a therapeutic relationship can support us to harness that power, even when it might seem difficult. It is imperative to my work that I try to create an environment where you will never feel judged.

As an integrative counsellor, I am influenced by a variety of psychological approaches, my training is predominantly person-centred and psychotherapeutic which means I believe that you hold answers to your own difficulties, and I recognise that it can be helpful to look at past relationships and trauma.

I predominantly work out from two locations - Central Guildford where I am a partner at The Practice, and at my home garden studio in Farnham. I also work online and offer a hybrid mix of online and face to face work.
