Hello, I’m Alex, a Counselling Psychologist with over 23 years of experience supporting individuals on their journey to mental wellbeing. I have worked across Portugal, America, and England, providing evidence-based psychotherapy to children, at-risk youth, adults, couples, families, and the elderly in diverse settings, including psychiatric facilities, mental health organisations, schools, and private practice.

As an EMDR Certified Psychotherapist and Hypnotherapist, I specialise in trauma-informed therapy. I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space where clients feel comfortable exploring their inner thoughts and emotions helping individuals heal from complex trauma and other mental health challenges. I integrate various evidence-based approaches, including Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, CPT, CFT, Humanistic therapies, and other integrative therapies, ensuring a personalised approach. I also incorporate sound therapy as a qualified Gong Practitioner, using sound healing to support relaxation and emotional processing.

As a clinical supervisor, my goal is to support and guide professional colleagues in their personal and professional development, helping them become their own supervisors while fostering ethical and client centred practice. Committed to lifelong learning, I continuously expand my knowledge to enhance my practice and better serve those I support.

With over 15 years of experience as an educator and recently awarded a FHEA, I aim to continue to expand my impact and expertise by developing training and CPD programmes for practitioners at all levels and ensure all receive high quality education and guidance as they progress in their careers. Passionate about collaboration in our field, I strive to promote best practices and build a strong professional community.
