Alex Beaumont

Our work together will always start with your needs and expectations. Grounded in the person-centred approach, I believe that you are the "expert" and I will help you to develop the tools you need to live a happy and fulfilling life - even if you feel stuck right now.

I will offer you a safe, trusting and supportive space for you to explore your issues, feelings and behaviours. Drawing on my background from a diverse range of fields, I have experience working with a range of issues, and offer a non-judgemental and welcoming environment whatever you might bring. My life and past work experience adds to my empathic understanding - such as from the world of sport, men's health, mental health, sexuality, LGBTQ+ and addiction.

Whether you are new to counselling or not, I will work with you to unlock your inner potential and be there with you every step of the way. Coming to therapy can feel daunting and I understand this. 

I usually work in an "open ended" way, so you have the freedom of how long we work together. Choice and autonomy is fundamental to my work. 

I will let you set the pace, and decide what content to bring. I am responsible for helping you through the process as we work with your hopes and expectations. Ultimately, the sessions are yours.

I work online via zoom, or by telephone, which gives you flexibility and convenience. Contact me to arrange a free 20 minute consultation to see if we might be a good fit.

I offer a FREE introductory 20 minute session by zoom or phone, to give you the opportunity to understand the way I work and to explore what you're looking for from therapy. This session is essentially for you to see if we might be a good fit. 

The first session will take the format of an assessment consultation, which will cover:

• Your hopes and expectations from therapy
• What led to you therapy, and the areas you might wish to focus on
• The opportunity for you to ask questions about me and my work, and any concerns you may have about therapy
