Welcome! I’m Alessandra, a compassionate Brazilian therapist embracing the full spectrum of human diversity. My ideal client is someone navigating complex internal conflicts, life transitions, or feelings of being stuck, seeking deeper self-understanding and growth. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your identity, heal, and align with your true self. Using Psychosynthesis, a holistic method, we’ll work together to uncover your inner strengths and create lasting change. Sessions are available in English and Portuguese, both in-person and online. I’m here to support your journey to a more authentic life.
How I can help: I provide a holistic therapy that nurtures your whole being—body, mind, and spirit. Together, we'll explore into your inner self, uncover your life's purpose, and unlock your full potential. Whether you face internal conflicts, life transitions, or seek deeper self-awareness, my approach is designed to support and guide you through.
Diverse expertise: As a BACP-registered counsellor with a BA in Psychology, an MA in Psychosynthesis Psychology, and an MSc in Occupational Therapy in progress, I bring a rich background to my practice. Since 2017, I've worked across education, charities, and the NHS, refining my skills in multidisciplinary settings for a comprehensive therapeutic approach.

About online counseling

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.
