Alex Storey, BACP

Alex Storey is a client-centered therapist based in the United Kingdom who places each person at the heart of her work. With four years of experience, she draws on a supportive, empathetic approach to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief and bereavement, relationship difficulties, addictions, trauma and abuse, and a wide range of life changes. Alex also supports clients facing challenges with parenting, body image, intimacy, career transitions, ADHD and bipolar-related concerns, among other presenting issues.

As a registered professional holding the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - Alex emphasizes a warm, genuine therapeutic presence that aims to create a trusting space for growth. Her own life experiences influenced the decision to train as a counsellor, and that perspective informs a compassionate, nonjudgmental way of working.

She welcomes clients who are ready to take the first step and offers collaborative support throughout the personal journey of change. Alex is particularly focused on helping people build coping skills, process loss, strengthen relationships, and explore patterns that affect wellbeing, guiding each person at a pace that suits them.

Client-Centered Approaches and Online Sessions

Alex practices Client-Centered Therapy, an approach that prioritizes the client’s own experience and perspective. In this model the therapist provides empathy, acceptance, and nonjudgmental support so that people can explore their feelings and make their own choices; it is often helpful for issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Alex collaborates with each person to identify what feels most useful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts her way of working as the relationship and progress unfold. Registered professionals and therapists often use this collaborative process to ensure care fits the individual.

Online therapy with Alex is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to choose the format that fits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods or when in-person sessions are impractical, while supporting consistent access to therapeutic support.
