About Alexis

His main aim is to offer steady support while people take steps toward change. With 14 years of experience, Alexis adapts sessions to each person’s needs. He draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow the client’s lead and create a respectful space.

Background and approach

He uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, achievable goals. Alexis regularly helps people navigate parenting challenges and blended family issues. He also works with attachment concerns, family of origin problems, and the emotional impact of domestic violence.

The focus can include grief, guilt, shame, isolation and multicultural concerns when those are relevant. Sessions are conversational and practical. Alexis listens for what matters most, then helps break larger worries into manageable steps.

Many clients appreciate having clear short-term goals alongside longer-term exploration.

How Alexis's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of sessions and emphasises active listening and empathy. Online, this means conversations that follow what the client brings and focus on understanding their perspective and feelings. Motivational Interviewing helps people identify their own reasons to change and resolve mixed feelings. In remote sessions this is often a few focused questions and reflections that build momentum toward a chosen goal. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical, short-term steps and recognises small changes quickly; it suits people who want clear actions and measurable progress.

Choosing the best approach is a team effort. Alexis will discuss the options with each person and agree which methods fit best with their goals and preferences. This collaborative planning can be adjusted as work progresses so the approach stays relevant and useful.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, short live chats can provide quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options increase flexibility, helping people keep momentum even when schedules are tight.
