About Alex

Alex Storey is a Client-Centred Therapist who puts each person at the centre of the work. She aims to create a warm, genuine space where people can talk about grief, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. Alex draws on her own life experience to stay compassionate and grounded in sessions.

She has four years of practice and often helps people dealing with bereavement and loss. She also supports those facing bullying, isolation, addiction concerns, and big life changes. Alex offers straightforward, person-focused listening rather than a one-size-fits-all programme.

Sessions are conversational and paced to suit the individual. The therapist listens, reflects back what she hears and helps people make sense of difficult feelings. Practical next steps are discussed when someone is ready to try them.

Alex works with a wide range of concerns including stress, relationship difficulties, parenting strain, trauma and issues with self-esteem. She also lists focus areas such as ADHD, bipolar, chronic illness, and body image among others, and will explore what matters most to each person.

Based in the United Kingdom, Alex holds BACP accreditation, which is the credential shown in her profile. She offers sessions in English and does not take international clients. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy is about listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. In practice this means the counsellor mirrors what is said, asks gentle questions and gives space for people to find their own answers. It can help with grief, anxiety, relationship concerns and feeling stuck.

Alex describes a warm, genuine approach that draws on life experience to stay grounded. That way of working tends to suit people who want a supportive, person-led conversation rather than a directive programme. Together the therapist and client decide which topics to focus on and how quickly to move forward.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific online options. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time and make regular check-ins simpler. Others prefer shorter phone catch-ups when they do not want to be on camera. Alex will discuss what works best and help match the practical arrangements to each person's needs.
