About Alex

Alex Storey is a Client-Centred therapist who places each person at the heart of their work. She uses a warm, genuine approach to help people talk through grief, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. Alex writes plainly and listens closely to what matters to each client. She holds a BACP accreditation and works from the United Kingdom.

With four years of clinical practice, Alex draws on her own life experiences to shape how she supports others. Sessions focus on helping people make sense of loss, cope with change, and manage stress or addictive behaviours. She also works with concerns such as parenting strain, career worries, body image and intimacy-related issues.

Her style is practical and person-led. She gives space for people to tell their story, then helps them find clearer options for moving forward. Sessions often centre on building self-esteem, improving communication and learning ways to cope with strong emotions.

Alex also supports people dealing with trauma, abuse, ADHD and bipolar-related challenges, alongside issues tied to adoption, attachment or ageing. She aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into manageable steps and naming realistic goals.

To begin, people are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and choose a time that suits them. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are not accepted.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than a set technique. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what she hears and follows the client's pace. This approach helps with grief, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns by creating space to make sense of feelings and choices.

The therapist's style is collaborative. Together the client and counsellor decide which ways of working feel right. If other approaches could help, they will be discussed and agreed as part of the process so the plan fits the client's goals and preferences.

Please confirm the session formats available before booking as the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into daily life - for example they can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins during a busy day, and make it simpler to keep therapy going when schedules change. Registered or accredited professionals can also adapt pace and focus to suit quieter surroundings, lower internet bandwidth, or a preference not to use video. These practical benefits can help therapy fit around work and family commitments without promising any particular service.
