About Alexandra
Alexandra Thomas is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of recent counselling experience. She trained after a nursing career and brings that background into her work with adults. Her practice includes issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem and depression.
She also supports people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related difficulties and eating or body-image concerns. Career questions, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue are part of her caseload. Alexandra lists ADHD, abandonment and attachment issues among other areas she addresses.
Her main method is Client-Centred Therapy. That means sessions focus on the person’s own priorities and pace rather than a strict set of steps. She explains that she works integratively and may bring in ideas from other models when helpful.
Before training as a counsellor she worked in hospital and nursing-home settings. That nursing background informs how she notices practical health and care factors alongside emotions. She has logged around nine hundred therapy practice hours when counting prior work.
She qualified with a Level 4 counselling credential in April after three placements across three years. Alexandra currently works in private practice and offers in-person, online and telephone sessions. International clients are accepted. To start, follow the site’s matching steps and schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How Client-Centred work adapts to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the person clarify priorities and choices. This approach can help with anger, relationship strain, anxiety and low self-esteem by focusing on what matters most to the client.Alexandra describes working integratively and may add elements from other models when they suit a person’s goals. Deciding which methods to use is a shared process. She will talk with the client about what feels helpful and adjust the approach as the work progresses.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online and telephone sessions can make shorter check-ins easier and allow people to attend from different locations, including international clients. The biography indicates she offers in-person, online and telephone options, but readers should confirm current session formats before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can help find a rhythm of appointments that fits with daily life and responsibilities.
