About Alexis

Alexis Reid-Hamilton works on grief, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and coping with life changes using person-centred methods and brief practical approaches. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 14 years of professional experience.

He uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a conversational way of working. Sessions focus on what matters to the person and on their own priorities. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want support to make changes and find direction. Solution-Focused Therapy helps to spot small practical steps and clearer next moves.

Alexis has worked with grief, parenting and self-esteem issues for many years, and he also supports people facing depression, stress and anxiety. He addresses relationship difficulties and the effects of trauma and abuse. There is attention to attachment concerns, blended family matters and problems rooted in family of origin.

Other areas he covers include domestic violence, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, multicultural concerns and building self-love. Work in sessions is practical and conversational, with attention to what the person says is most important. Goals and small steps are agreed together.

He offers sessions in English and practises in the United Kingdom. His approach is straightforward and aimed at helping people find manageable ways forward. To begin, use the Talk to a counsellor online button and complete the short matching questionnaire before booking a first session.

How his approaches shape online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person speaking freely while the counsellor listens and reflects back what matters. This approach is helpful for people wanting to understand feelings, work through grief or look at relationship patterns.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who want change but are unsure how to start. It uses structured conversation to clarify goals, explore ambivalence and find practical next steps that feel achievable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alexis will discuss what helps most and adapt methods based on the person's goals and preferences. Decisions about pace, focus and techniques are made collaboratively during early sessions.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting appointments into a busy week and joining sessions without travel. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to arrange times outside usual office hours. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to make sure they fit your routine.
