Therapy Sessions

My Approach To Therapy
 

My approach to working with individuals and couples in therapy is highly collaborative. My therapeutic practice allows a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore thoughts, feelings, emotions and behavioural patterns - with you at the heart of our therapeutic relationship.

I am a qualified Integrative Humanistic Counsellor, CBT Therapist and Advanced Psychosexual Therapist. I work with people to help them work through issues which are causing pain or holding them back in various areas of their life.

I am a cancer survivor and have worked as a counsellor for the Nightingale Cancer Support Centre for 10 years. I believe this has given me personal insight into some of the challenges that living with a long term condition can bring to all areas of life. 

I am a member of The Thought House Partnership which has built a reputation offering excellent psychosexual and relationship therapy and is based in Central London close to Charlotte Street in Fitzrovia. I also run a small evening and weekend practice as an associate member of The Little Room of Therapy based in Hertfordshire/North London/Essex borders. Online sessions are also available.

Cost per session £100 - £150
Discounts available - Yes
Sliding Scale - Yes

​Client Testimonials

Alison has been a huge help through a very tough period in my life and has given me the tools and the safe space to open up and communicate honestly. I felt comfortable from the very first session even though it was over Zoom and continued in person and online. I was always impressed with her attention to detail when picking out words, phrases or the body language I used to ask questions that dove deeper into our conversations. I am no longer seeking help from Alison but will definitely return if and when needed.

We couldn't recommend Alison highly enough. Me and my husband cannot believe the difference she has made to our relationship not just on a physical level but also in how we communicate with one another. We were a bit skeptical about having couples therapy but felt a ease straight away with Alison. She is a true professional that holds such a safe space for you both that you feel you are able to talk about anything.

I've been seeing Alison for help on a challenging issue. Her combination of empathy and patience allied to careful questioning and goal setting, has got me progressively solving and reconciling what had previously been a seriously difficult issue to find a practical answer on. I can thoroughly recommend her professionalism and motivation to help and the positive results she's helped me achieve. 

Just a little email to thank you for your time spent with me during the equestrian therapy. I thoroughly enjoyed it and felt that it did help me. I enjoyed working with you and spending time with your amazing horses.

I found my sessions with Alison really encouraging and beneficial with a mixed approach of talking and working with the horses. There was a real focus on my interaction with the horses - from how I felt, to how they responded and encouraging me to protect my boundaries. As someone who had not interacted with horses in some time, Alison created a safe space with no pressure on performance during our exercises. After each session I left feeling a strong sense of calm. I am very grateful for the experience and would highly recommend Alison!

I had three sessions of Equine Assisted Therapy with Alison. Alison made me feel comfortable to talk about difficult topics and emotions. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about the therapy. I found interacting with the horses very calming. I would like to thank Alison very much for the help and support that she has given me
