Alex Storey, BACP

Alex Storey is a Client-Centred therapist who puts each person at the heart of sessions. She uses a warm, down-to-earth style to help people talk through stressful and painful moments. Alex works with common struggles such as anxiety, low mood and grief, and with relationship and intimacy-related worries including jealousy.

She has four years of practice experience and brings that day-to-day learning into sessions. Conversations are paced to suit the person, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting back what matters most. This helps people feel understood and notice what they want to change.

Typical themes Alex supports include coping with life changes, parenting strain, addiction concerns, and trauma or abuse. She also addresses long-term issues such as bipolar and ADHD-related challenges, body image, and career stress. Practical topics like communication problems and commitment worries are included too.

Alex aims to make starting therapy straightforward. She offers a calm, genuine presence and focuses on what each person brings to the room. Sessions are built around the client’s pace and goals rather than a fixed agenda.

People who choose this approach often want a space to think things through and make step-by-step changes. Alex invites those who are ready to take the first step to use the site process to match and schedule their first meeting. She will then work collaboratively to shape the sessions around the client’s needs and aims.

Client-Centred support adapted for online work

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s perspective first and values their own experience. This approach involves listening without judgement, reflecting what is said, and helping people make sense of their feelings. It can be helpful for relationship concerns, anxiety, low mood and grief because it creates space to be heard.

Alex offers a gentle, empathic way of working that matches the Client-Centred approach. Finding the right style is part of the process, and she will work together with each person to decide what feels most useful. That means trying ways of talking and reviewing what helps reach the client’s goals.

If you are considering online sessions, check the available session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing practical needs during the first contact helps shape sessions that fit into everyday life and support steady progress.
