About me
Welcome to my profile page, my name is Alexandra. I am an integrative therapist providing individual counselling for adults remotely (Zoom or Teams) and in person (Weymouth).
I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including trauma, historic abuse, relationship problems, anxiety, depression, burnout and so on. I also helped clients when they faced a specific challenge or problem in life or wanted to better understand themselves and others and explore what was going on for them.
A session lasts for 50 minutes and it's £50/session.
My style is warm and I provide a safe place to come and explore yourself and your problems. Counselling provides space to share and to be listened to; it enables you to grow and find your best potential in a non-judgemental and empathic way.
Please feel free to contact me (email and messages) or book a free 15-minute telephone consultation before you make a decision.
My availability:
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday: Daytime and evening sessions are available
Saturday: daytime and remote sessions only
Tuesday and Sunday - closed
Please message/email me directly if you're interested, I look forward to hearing from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
My background is in adult health and social care and I also worked for a local agency for several years before I fully moved on to private practice. I started my counselling journey by volunteering at Redlands Counselling and Training Agency. Besides counselling, I also completed an undergraduate and master's degree in psychology/health psychology.
I have worked with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, historic abuse, burnout, loneliness, stress, and so on. I believe in a biopsychosocial approach that considers biological/physical, psychological, and social factors in a person's life as they interact. I combine person-centred therapy, Gestalt therapy, and transactional analysis when I work with clients.

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.
