Alice has helped me so much. I have autism, CFS, and PTSD. Really great people centred therapy

Written on Apr 14, 2026 after therapy with Alice for 1 year and 7 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, lgbt, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and self esteem

Alice is Absolutely amazing as a therapist - she has managed to build up a state of trust that I have never up until this point now been able to form and really get to the heart of the issues that I have been wanting to solve since beginning this journey. Alice always seeks to provide a safe space first and foremost - always travelling at a pace that is comfortable for me and the moment I am at. Thank you Alice for the incredible work you have done and safety / trust you have built.

Alice is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I connected with her straight away and I genuinely feel safe and understood in our sessions. I trust her fully. Our work together has helped me so much and I can already see real changes in my life since we started. I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

I have been meeting with Alice for a few months now and she has been a huge help for me in dealing with my eating disorder. I feel very supported in our sessions and am given really useful practical advice - and I really value her honesty at all times.
