About Alexander
Alexander Szendrei is a BACP registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. He helps people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, intimacy concerns, addictions, parenting pressures and anger among other issues. Sessions are offered in English, Czech and Slovak.
Alexander draws on several well established approaches to therapy rather than a single method. He talks through how past experiences shape present feelings and responses. That includes looking at attachment patterns and repeated relationship dynamics that can fuel anger, resentment or avoidance.
His way of working is straightforward and conversational. Alexander uses client-centred listening to pin down what matters most to the person in front of him. He also employs cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and rework unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that keep problems active.
He pays attention to how personal history affects current coping. Narrative and existential ideas are used to help people make sense of life changes, loss and questions of meaning that often sit beneath anger or low mood. Work can include looking at self esteem, communication patterns and boundaries.
People who choose Alexander usually want practical ways to manage heat in the moment and to understand the patterns behind it. He offers clear, conversational sessions that aim to reduce confusion and help people take manageable steps forward.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Alexander commonly blends Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in his work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and helps with recurring anger and trust issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, which can help clarify feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy identifies specific thoughts and behaviours that keep problems running and offers practical techniques to change them.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. He will work collaboratively to agree what fits your needs, goals and preferences. That means reviewing what helps and adjusting the methods used as work progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove the need to travel for an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical advantages to help maintain consistency and make progress between sessions.
