About Alessandra

Alessandra Samson is a counsellor with a Bachelor-level accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years' experience helping people who feel overstretched, anxious, or disconnected from themselves. Alessandra works with people facing stress, relationship issues, grief, career strain, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem.

She often begins by helping clients name what they do to survive - saying yes when you mean no, or putting others first until you feel empty.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on understanding those patterns and how they came to be. That makes it easier to choose different ways of responding in day-to-day life. Alessandra uses client-centred and solution-focused methods.

She aims to make sessions practical and focused on what matters now. Together with each client she develops small, manageable steps to try between meetings. Her style is straightforward and empathic.

She keeps the pace set by the person in front of her and checks in about what is useful. People who come to her often want clearer boundaries, less guilt, and a stronger sense of themselves. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Sessions are planned to fit a person’s life and goals, whether working through a big loss, adjusting to life change, or dealing with ongoing anxiety and stress.

How her approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s tempo. This approach helps when someone is feeling lost, unheard, or unsure about their own needs.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move things in a different direction. Sessions often identify what is already working and build on those strengths to tackle problems like anxiety, stress, or relationship patterns.

Finding the best fit is a joint process. Alessandra will talk through your goals and preferences and try different ways of working until you feel a good match. The plan can change as progress is made and as priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls are good for face-to-face connection, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can be a shorter or more flexible way to check in. These options let people work with a registered professional from different locations and at times that suit their schedule.
