About me
Heal, Grow, Thrive: Integrative Therapy in Weymouth or remotely
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges? Struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, or the impact of past trauma? Having difficulty navigating relationship issues or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself?
I'm Alexandra, an integrative therapist offering compassionate and effective counselling services for adults in Weymouth, both in person and via Zoom/Teams.
As an integrative therapist, I draw upon a range of evidence-based approaches, including a person-centred approach, Gestalt therapy and transactional analysis, tailoring my approach to meet your unique needs.
Through therapy, you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the patterns that may be holding you back. You'll develop practical coping strategies to manage difficult emotions and navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
Each session lasts 50 minutes and is priced at £50.
I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth and healing, and I am passionate about supporting my clients on their journey towards greater well-being.
Ready to take the first step? Email or text me to schedule a free 15-minute phone/video consultation. We can discuss your needs and explore how therapy might be helpful for you.

Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday: Daytime (morning and lunchtime hours) 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
I bring a wealth of experience to my counselling practice, gained through years of working in adult health and social care, including with a local drug & alcohol agency. My academic background includes both undergraduate and master's degrees in Psychology/Health Psychology, providing me with a strong foundation in understanding the complexities of human experience.
I work with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, the effects of historic abuse, burnout, loneliness, and stress.
Approach
I believe in a biopsychosocial approach - it's like looking at the whole tree, not just one part of it. It recognizes that these three areas – biological, social, and psychological – are all interconnected and influence each other. A problem in one area can often affect the others. For example, a stressful work situation (social) might lead to difficulty sleeping (biological) and feelings of anxiety (psychological).
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.
