About me
Hello my name is Alex, a BACP registered counsellor based in Morley, Leeds.
I work in a relaxed, down to earth way, bringing together professional training, real life experience and genuine care.
Offering integrative therapy because, for me, therapy isn’t one size fits all. What works for one person might not work for another, so together we find what works for you.
Together, we explore what often goes unspoken, make sense of experiences, notice unhelpful patterns and behaviours, and uncover strengths and perspectives that can support lasting change.
Over the years, I’ve gained experience supporting people with grief, anxiety, neurodivergence, low self-esteem, identity challenges, childhood trauma, relationship and family difficulties.
But you don’t have to fit neatly into a box or even have a name for what you’re struggling with.
Sometimes you just know that things don’t feel quite right, and we can start from there.
More than anything, I want my therapy room to feel like somewhere you can just be yourself.
I offer a free 15–20 minute introductory call. It’s an opportunity to ask questions, learn more about how I work and see whether we’re the right fit .

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
