About Alexandra
Alexandra Squires is a counsellor with 11 years of UK practice. She offers a steady, non-judgemental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, relationships, eating concerns, low self-esteem and depression. She emphasises a calm, person-focused approach to help people take the first step toward change.
Alexandra uses conversational, client-centred work to understand what matters most to each person. She listens for patterns in thoughts and behaviours and will use cognitive behavioural techniques to help shift unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness exercises may be introduced to help with stress and anxiety when that feels useful.
Her background includes long experience supporting people with relationship difficulties, body image and eating issues, and motivation or confidence struggles. She also has experience with abandonment, attachment and adoption-related concerns, plus caregiver stress and long-term illness challenges.
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking alongside space to process feelings. Alexandra aims to help people build skills they can use between meetings and to set achievable goals that fit everyday life.
She holds BACP registration, which is recorded as BACP. Sessions are conducted in English and take place in the United Kingdom. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.
Therapeutic approaches suited to online work
Alexandra commonly blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience without judgement, helping people feel heard and able to set their own goals. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and provides straightforward exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.Mindfulness may also be offered to help manage stress and anxiety through simple attention exercises and short practices. These approaches can help with low mood, worries, relationship tension and eating or body image concerns by giving practical strategies and steadier ways of noticing difficult moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will work collaboratively to choose techniques that fit your needs, goals and preferences. Sessions begin with listening to your concerns and then agreeing what to try next, adjusting the plan as you progress.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time so therapy is easier to attend. Please confirm current session formats before booking so you know which options are available. Many people find that regular meetings and short between-session exercises help therapy sit alongside everyday life rather than replace it.
