About Alessandra Samson
Alessandra describes this pattern as a form of self-abandonment that developed as a way to feel safe - managing other people’s emotions to avoid conflict, rejection, or being judged as 'too much.' That strategy may have helped for a while and then stopped working, leaving the person exhausted and ready for change. Therapy with Alessandra begins by making sense of these patterns and then exploring practical, compassionate ways to shift them.
She recognises that reaching out can feel difficult and even selfish after years of putting others first, and she aims to offer a gentle, paced approach that suits each client. Alessandra offers both short-term and longer-term work and is available for appointments on Mondays and some evenings. She holds the BACP credential, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Alessandra
Alessandra uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the client’s experience is heard and validated. This approach emphasises empathic listening and helps people explore their feelings, build self-understanding, and strengthen self-esteem and identity over time.She also uses solution-focused therapy, a practical, goal-oriented approach that helps clients identify small, achievable steps toward change. This method can be useful for addressing stress, coping with life transitions, and finding clear strategies to manage relationships or daily challenges.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alessandra works collaboratively with each client to determine what fits best. She tailors the pace and focus of sessions to the client’s goals, preferences, and immediate needs, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds.
Offering therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or busy schedules. These options make it easier to access support from home or on the go, allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable, and support continuity of care when in-person appointments are not possible.
