About Alexander
Alexander Weintroub is a counsellor with four years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and issues with self-esteem and motivation. Alexander approaches sessions with a calm, supportive demeanour and encourages clients to use their own strengths as a basis for change.
He believes clients are the experts on their own lives and aims to empower them to take steps toward a more satisfying life.
Background and approach
Sessions are paced to suit each person and conversations are allowed to unfold without pressure. Alexander draws on several approaches to meet different needs, including attachment work, cognitive techniques and emotion-focused ideas. In practice he helps people talk through intimacy concerns, anger, addiction-related worries and challenges linked to parenting or fatherhood.
He also supports those coping with trauma, shame, isolation or struggles around commitment and communication. The focus is on identifying practical changes alongside a clearer understanding of feelings and patterns. Alexander works in English and offers sessions over video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
He holds the NCPS credential and brings a straightforward, person-centred style to sessions. He aims to make the steps into therapy simple and manageable for someone feeling overwhelmed. People starting with him are guided through an initial matching and scheduling process.
The approach is collaborative, with an emphasis on small, achievable goals and building on what already works for the client.

Sessions & fees
How attachment, CBT and emotion-focused work translate online
Attachment-based work looks at how early patterns shape how people relate now. Online sessions can help someone notice their attachment reactions and try new ways of connecting or setting boundaries. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing more helpful alternatives to change mood and behaviour. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and social fears and adapts well to exercises done between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people map and name their emotions, so they can respond rather than react. This approach suits issues with closeness, jealousy and emotional overwhelm.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alexander will discuss options and tailor methods to a person's goals and preferences. That collaborative planning means techniques can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video lets for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone can fit a short check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging supports brief updates or reflective writing between sessions. These formats make it easier to schedule therapy around work, childcare and daily life while still working with registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
