Alexandra Grimes is a UK-licensed therapist with 5 years of professional experience who offers compassionate, person-centered support tailored to each client. She holds NCPS, a credential indicating professional qualification in counselling and psychotherapy, and applies a warm and empathic approach that emphasizes respect and sensitivity. Alexandra works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, grief and loss, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and a wide range of life adjustments including parenting, career concerns, ADHD, and bipolar-related challenges.
Using a person-centered, non-directive style, Alexandra places the client and their lived experience at the heart of the work. She collaborates on treatment plans that reflect each person’s goals, pacing, and preferences, and adapts dialogue and therapeutic focus to suit individual needs. Clients seeking greater understanding, emotional processing, or practical coping strategies can expect a calm, accepting space in which to explore difficult material.
Alexandra recommends video calls as a helpful way to build rapport and see who you are speaking with, but she also offers phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging when that better suits a client’s circumstances. She provides online therapy from her home setting where she focuses on minimizing distractions so sessions can proceed with attention and care.
