More about Alice
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a qualified Person-centred Psychotherapist and Creative counsellor with experience in healthcare, higher education, the charity sector and private practice. I have worked with clients aged 11 to 65 from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. I offer a non-judgmental space where every part of you is welcome, even the parts you may find difficult to face. My approach is collaborative, compassionate and relational, providing room for reflection, emotional processing and deeper self-connection. Together we will create a space where you can express yourself authentically and feel seen, heard and valued.
I am an adaptable and flexible therapist, and the therapy can be shaped to suit your preferences, whether through talking therapy, creative expression or a blended approach. I have supported clients through a wide range of challenges including cultural and racial identity, life transitions, relationship issues, depression, bereavement and loss. My role is to offer fresh perspectives, space for insight and the opportunity to explore your inner world at emotional depth.

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.
