About me

My name is Alejandra. I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist and a Registered Member of the BACP, with experience working in private practice, online therapy, community mental health and crisis support. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish.

I work with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns, with particular experience in trauma, relationship and attachment difficulties, alcohol and substance dependency, intimacy related issues, anxiety, self esteem, emotional regulation, grief and significant life changes. I also work with couples experiencing difficulties with communication, trust, infidelity, emotional connection and intimacy.

My therapy style is warm, compassionate, collaborative and practical. I believe in creating a safe and non judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood, while also developing a deeper understanding of yourself. An important part of my work is helping clients recognise the patterns behind their emotions, behaviours and relationships, understand where these patterns may have developed, and begin creating healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

As an integrative therapist, I don't believe that one therapeutic approach fits everyone. I draw from different therapeutic approaches and tailor our work to your individual needs, experiences and goals. My training includes Integrative Counselling, Drug and Alcohol Counselling, EMDR and Clinical Hypnotherapy.

Beginning therapy can feel difficult, particularly when you don't yet know exactly what you need or where to start. You don't need to have everything figured out before we meet. We can begin with where you are now and work together towards greater understanding, healing and meaningful change.

I look forward to working with you.

Alejandra is a wonderful therapist. She understands me and helps me make sense of my thoughts. She also helps me gain a fuller perspective on the emotions and situations I experience, guiding me toward growing as a person every day. Her words stay with me.

Alejandra is one of the most caring and professional therapists I have met. She takes great pride in her work, and I feel she has built a great foundation for me to work on my mental health. I hope to return to Better Help at some time in the future. In that circumstance, I would definitely request Alejandra, as her ability to help me rationalise and empathise with my situations is unparalleled. I would definitely recommend Alejandra to any newcomers and returning clients. Thank you, Alejandra. You have helped me more than you know. :)
