About me

Welcome!

I’m Alice, women's trauma therapist and coach with the person centred focus, utilising a variety of psychological approaches to help you. If you wish to be understood and work with a therapist who has a lived experience of trauma, let's chat.

Each person is unique and deserves custom made approach. I create a space where anyone can feel safe, is able to speak freely without the fear of judgement, where life changing discoveries are made and positive changes can take place. You will be respected and valued, in all your uniqueness. 

Focus of my work is on healing, breaking toxic cycles and rebuilding self worth. I have experience with ADHD and instead of being a common fixer of many problems, I provide my clients with specialised support in the area of my expertise.

My clients often come to me with self doubt, fear of taking action, anxiety, depression, kink sexuality, procrastination, confusion, chaotic mind, issues in relationships (romantic/family), inability to progress in their career, and many more.

I offer 30 min Free Consultation, for all new clients. Reach out and I will be happy to answer any of your questions, listen to your concerns and accommodate your needs as much as possible.

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and I work according to their Code of Practice. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, a degree in Psychology and Criminology, currently broadening my knowledge in the neuroscience of mental health and women’s health. I regularly attend training on anxiety/depression, attachment, family connections/issues, ADHD and autism to keep up to date. My previous experience involved working with children, adults, the elderly, refugees, homeless, veterans, BDSM practitioners, survivors of abuse, people with neurodegenerative conditions and victims of crimes. I work with ADHD and autistic adult clients as well.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
