More about Alexsandro

- BACP
I am accredited Counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional practice experience. My expertise spans a broad range of areas including stress, depression & anxiety, addictions support, LGBTQ+ related matters, trauma, abuse, and neurodiversity - particularly ADHD and Autism. I specialise in supporting clients with concentration, memory, and focus challenges, drawing upon my integrative person-centred approach which may incorporates CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Transactional Analysis, and Humanism.
My philosophy centres on the belief that each client is the expert of their own narrative, possessing inherent strengths that can be harnessed to overcome life's challenges. I recognise that seeking support and working towards a more fulfilling life requires significant courage, and I am dedicated to providing a supportive, empowering therapeutic environment. My multilingual capabilities in English, Portuguese, and Spanish enables me to offer culturally sensitive support to a diverse client base, particularly those navigating the complexities of living and working abroad.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
