Alexandra has helped me in a lot of ways to better understand myself and the way I react to things. It has been amazing speaking with her just to debrief about my week and she has been very open and understanding. She is a great therapist.

My background is Nursing working both in the Hospital and in Nursing Homes.
My Holistic approach within Nursing has been very helpful in defining the way I work in the Therapy room. I work in an integrative way but I mainly follow the Person Centred approach. There will be times that I bring in aspects of other models.
I qualified with the Level 4 last.April having been working for three placements over the last three years.
My experience is Counselling, Adults, Students and Young People and Women.
Currently I work in private Practice both in Person, on line and on the telephone.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
