Alicia is a very kind and compassionate therapist, and I felt comfortable right away opening up to her. She always found ways to make me think about what I was feeling or the way I was reacting to certain things in my life, and I came away from each session having realised a little more about myself. I only signed up for a month with BetterHelp, but if I were to go back I would definitely want to continue the sessions with Alicia!

More about Alicia
- 3 years' experience

- BACP
I’m a friendly, caring person-centred therapist based in the UK.
I offer a warm, safe space where you can be yourself and explore what is troubling you, free from judgment.
I welcome people of all ages (16+) and identities. I am LGBTQIA+ affirmative.
I speak English, French and Dutch and can offer therapy in any of these languages. Sensitivity to cultural diversity informs my practice.
My approach is rooted in person-centred and humanistic counselling. I will help you explore your feelings and thoughts in a safe, supportive and non-directive environment. As your counsellor, I will work with what you bring and be led by you. Together, we will build a trusting therapeutic relationship, which will help you find your own answers and trust your own instincts. I won't give you advice, but I will bring an empathic, engaged and authentic presence to our interactions.
I will listen to what you need and work at a pace that feels comfortable for you. We will regularly review our work together. I welcome feedback and my aim as a counsellor is to be open and approachable.
I also work relationally: when it feels useful, I work with what happens in the here-and-now of the counselling relationship. This can be a powerful way to further explore the issues that you bring to therapy.
Please feel free to ask me for more details of how I work.
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling (Distinction) from York St John University. Before training as a counsellor, I taught languages and literature at university.
I have experience working with a wide range of issues, including LGBTQ+ counselling, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, abuse, chronic conditions such as ME, migraine or vestibular disorders / prolonged dizziness.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
