About me and my therapy practice
Hi. I'm Alex - a Person-Centred Psychotherapist (MÂé¶¹Ô´´) and founder of Counselling with Alex - a safe space to share your story. I offer online and telephone counselling that's friendly, flexible and meets you where you are.
Practice description
As a person-centred counsellor, I offer a calm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, at your own pace. My approach is grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life, and that given the right conditions — empathy, acceptance, and genuine understanding — you have the capacity to grow, heal, and move towards the life you want to live.
I bring not only professional training but also personal experience to my work. I have lived experience of mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, neurodivergence, and navigate the world part of the LGBTQ+ community. My own journey informs my practice in a way that helps me connect with clients with authenticity, care, and respect.
