More about Alison

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am licensed in the UK with 10 years of professional work experience. If you are looking for a down to earth therapist who cares, then read on.

I have experience in helping clients with addiction, stress and anxiety, ED, OCD, anger, relationship issues and coping with grief and loss. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment, and choices can be made. It takes courage to seek out ways to help yourself and work towards feeling confident in your choices. My aim is to work alongside you, helping you uncover who you really are, who you really want to be and not how you should be according to another's agenda. I know that contemplating change can be scary and the first steps at reaching out can seem really scary. I am here to work with you and support you in that journey.

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.
