About Allegra

Allegra Wassef offers a client-centred approach that puts the person and their experience first. She keeps sessions warm and straightforward so people can talk about what matters and feel heard. Allegra's style aims to help clients understand their feelings and take practical steps forward.

Allegra has three years' experience as a therapeutic counsellor and holds a diploma in therapeutic counselling. She draws on client-centred principles to create a supportive space where people decide the pace and direction of therapy.

Background and approach

This is especially useful for stress, anxiety and low mood where being listened to helps make sense of things. She also helps people struggling with relationships and self-esteem. Allegra works with those coping with life changes and with concerns around attachment, body image and isolation or loneliness.

She can support people exploring sexuality, self-love, women's issues, and questions about life purpose. Sessions focus on talking through current difficulties and developing small, practical steps to manage them. Conversations aim to build understanding, strengthen coping, and increase confidence.

Allegra uses a collaborative style, working alongside each person to shape goals and choices. People can expect straightforward language and a calm presence in sessions. The emphasis is on making therapy useful in day-to-day life, whether the need is short-term support or a longer process of personal growth.

Allegra offers services to people in the United Kingdom and to international clients in English.

Sessions & fees

Client-centred support delivered online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person lead the conversation. The counsellor reflects what is said and helps people work out their own solutions, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and self-esteem issues.

In practice Allegra uses this approach to create space for people to describe their experience without judgement. That helps when navigating life changes, attachment worries, body image or questions about sexuality and women's health. The emphasis is on the client's priorities and on building understanding together.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Allegra treats this as a collaboration. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and agree how therapy should proceed, adjusting methods as needs change over time.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and reading non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can work when a quieter or lower-bandwidth option is needed. Chat and text messages suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing and want flexibility across the day.

These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life and to access support from different locations. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt sessions to suit each person's circumstances and goals.
