Alexandra Grimes, NCPS

Alexandra Grimes is a UK-based therapist with five years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, grief, and a wide range of emotional and behavioural concerns. She holds NCPS, a clinical credential, and brings a warm, empathic presence to her work, meeting each person with respect and sensitivity.

Working in a client-centered way, Alexandra places the client experience at the heart of therapy and adopts a non-directive stance so clients lead the content of sessions. She combines this focus on the individual with tools from evidence-informed approaches to tailor a treatment plan that addresses specific needs, whether that relates to mood, addiction, intimacy, parenting, neurodiversity, or coping with life transitions.

Alexandra aims to create a calm, non-judgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings, better understand their patterns, and develop practical ways to move forward. She offers therapy online from a dedicated home workspace and encourages video calls to foster a strong therapeutic connection, while also providing phone and messaging options to fit different preferences and circumstances. Alexandra accepts international clients and adapts her approach to support each person’s unique journey toward greater well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Alexandra Grimes

Alexandra works from a client-centered perspective, which places the person's experiences and priorities at the centre of therapy and allows sessions to follow what matters most to the client. This approach is helpful for people seeking a compassionate, exploratory space to process emotions, relationships, and life changes.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and develops concrete strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, sleep or eating difficulties, and stress. Psychodynamic therapy is another element of her practice, offering a chance to explore deeper patterns and early influences that shape relationships and emotional responses.

Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. Alexandra works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting methods over time to suit changing needs.

Online therapy provides flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or when in-person sessions are not possible. These formats allow registered professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care, support progress, and adapt to what works best for each individual.
