I’m Alex (she/her). I am a qualified integrative counsellor, offering therapy in East London (Walthamstow) and online.
You might be looking for therapy because you feel overwhelmed, or distressed. You might want some space to think through some of your past experiences, and how they’re affecting you today. Or, something big might have happened recently – such as a big life change, transition, or loss, in some area of your life. Maybe something just doesn’t feel quite ‘right’, but you can’t put your finger on what.
I work to create a safe, supportive, empathic environment, where you can take time to explore whatever is going on for you.
Therapy is quite different to other relationships, such as with family, friends, partners or colleagues. As a counsellor, I’m there to create a space that’s truly yours – to unpack how you’re feeling, and what matters to you. I’ll always let you take the lead.
Being an ‘integrative’ counsellor means I use a blend of different approaches. People are unique, so I try to avoid assumptions, and tailor how I work and the pace of our sessions, depending on what you need.
