Hello - I’m Alex (she/ her). My aim is to offer a space for people to reflect and make sense of what is currently happening for them - either 'here and now' or in previous experiences that have led them to this point.
A private, comfortable room which is wheelchair accessible
I am especially passionate about access to therapy and recognise that, in the UK, navigating counselling and psychotherapy can feel unnecessarily complex, stigmatising and expensive; often with long waiting lists. I offer a 'sliding scale' fee and reserve some space for low cost sessions.
To help you understand a bit more about what therapy is, I also host a podcast which facilitates conversations with mental health professionals, sign-posting listeners to options for support. The Waitlist Podcast can be found on all Podcast streaming services.
