More about Alice

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a qualified Person-centred Psychotherapist and Creative counsellor with experience in healthcare, higher education, the charity sector and private practice. I have worked with clients aged 11 to 65 from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. I offer a non-judgmental space where every part of you is welcome, even the parts you may find difficult to face. My approach is collaborative, compassionate and relational, providing room for reflection, emotional processing and deeper self-connection. Together we will create a space where you can express yourself authentically and feel seen, heard and valued.

I am an adaptable and flexible therapist, and the therapy can be shaped to suit your preferences, whether through talking therapy, creative expression or a blended approach. I have supported clients through a wide range of challenges including cultural and racial identity, life transitions, relationship issues, depression, bereavement and loss. My role is to offer fresh perspectives, space for insight and the opportunity to explore your inner world at emotional depth.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
