About me
Hello! My name is Alex, I'm a humanistic integrative counsellor with ADHD from New Zealand.
I offer 1-1 integrative psychotherapy while basing our sessions on Person-Centred principles. This means I hold a non-judgmental, empathetic, and warm space to explore what you'd like to bring, together with curiosity and compassion.
The Person-Centred approach makes therapy deeply empowering. By fostering a space of genuine understanding and acceptance, you’ll gain insight into your experiences, allowing you to approach challenges with a new perspective. The goal is not only to explore your thoughts and feelings but also to truly understand them in a way that makes lasting change possible.
In addition to the core Person-Centred approach, I offer tools and techniques from Cognitive, Narrative, and Somatic therapies to support you as you develop practical strategies for managing life’s difficulties. These approaches are designed to help you build resilience, regain your confidence, and move forward with a sense of purpose and calm.
Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, or seeking personal growth, this work can help you achieve a greater sense of harmony, self-awareness, and emotional well-being. The changes you may experience might include improved emotional regulation, clearer decision-making, healthier relationships, and a stronger connection to your true self.
I believe that, with time and support, you have the ability to thrive in your daily life. If you’re ready to take the first step toward transformation, I’d be honored to support you in this journey.

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.
