Alex Storey, BACP

Alex Storey is a Client-Centred therapist who places each person at the centre of sessions. She uses a warm, empathetic approach that helps people talk through loss, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. Alex aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is unsure or nervous about therapy.

She has four years of experience and holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP. Alex draws on her own life experience to inform a compassionate style. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and move at a pace they can tolerate.

People come to Alex for many concerns including grief, stress, addiction, eating difficulties, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, anger and intimacy-related issues. Career worries, parenting strain and communication problems are among other topics she helps people work through.

Alex is familiar with longer-standing conditions such as bipolar and ADHD, and with specific issues like abandonment, attachment matters, autism and blended family challenges. She listens for the practical effects of these problems and helps people find workable steps forward.

Therapy sessions use straightforward conversation and reflective listening to build understanding. Alex encourages people to set simple goals and to try small changes between sessions. This practical, person-focused style helps clients notice progress and feel more able to face everyday challenges.

Client-Centred work online and practical access

Client-Centred Therapy is built around listening and helping people feel understood. The therapist reflects back what a person says, asks gentle questions and follows the concerns the person brings. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, grief and relationship issues because it helps the person clarify their own goals.

Alex focuses on creating a calm and respectful space where clients lead the conversation. Together they decide what to prioritise and try small, realistic steps between sessions. That collaborative process helps tailor the approach to each person's needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and practical needs. Video calls let people use visual cues in conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in, while live chat and text messaging can suit shorter updates or times when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, family or other commitments.
