About Alex

Alex Storey is a Client-Centred counsellor who places each person at the heart of their work. She combines a warm, genuine manner with straightforward listening to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or alone.

She has four years of practice supporting people through bereavement and loss, anxiety and depression, and relationship difficulties. She also works with concerns such as stress, addiction, anger, self-esteem and the practical strains of parenting and career change.

Alex draws on her own life experience to inform compassionate conversations rather than to tell people what to do. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on small, useful steps to reduce distress and restore a sense of control.

Her practice is suited to people dealing with trauma, abuse, attachment or abandonment issues, and conditions such as bipolar disorder or ADHD where a listening, person-centred approach can help clarify next steps. She also supports concerns about body image, eating and intimacy-related issues.

People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through painful events and confusing feelings. Alex aims to help clients find clarity and practical ways to cope with life changes so they can move forward at their own pace.

Client-Centred care and online conversations

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than on labels. The counsellor listens with empathy, reflects what they hear and helps the person identify what matters most. This approach suits issues like anxiety, depression, grief and relationship worries where being heard helps create clarity.

Alex uses a warm, person-focused style in sessions. Together the counsellor and client will consider goals and preferences and decide on the best way to work. Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be shaped by the client's needs and aims.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so it is important to confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements so sessions can be arranged at times that suit daily routines and commitments.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
