About Alexandra

Alexandra Squires is a BACP registered therapist practising in the United Kingdom with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, eating concerns, low self-esteem and confidence, and depression, and she also addresses related issues such as attachment, body image, caregiving stress, and challenges connected to adoption and foster care. Alexandra combines practical strategies with a thoughtful, person-focused approach to help clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and move toward a more satisfying life.

She creates an open and nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of criticism, and she supports each person through the often difficult first steps of change. Alexandra is registered with BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and draws on a range of methods, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic ideas to tailor therapy to individual needs. She aims to work collaboratively, helping clients clarify goals and develop realistic plans for progress, while offering steady support throughout the therapeutic journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship where the client leads the pace of change and explores personal values and goals; it is often helpful for issues of self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, works by identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and teaching practical strategies to manage anxiety, low mood, and eating-related patterns. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings, supporting people who experience persistent worry, stress, or difficulties with body image.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Alexandra will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape goals and adapt techniques as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and other commitments. These options increase access to registered professionals and allow therapists to provide consistent support when in-person meetings are not possible, while still focusing on meaningful progress and skill building.
