Dr. Alex's Practice

I offer a range of mental health services including psychiatric assessment, psychotherapy and behaviour change coaching.

Psychiatry

I am a General Adult Psychiatrist with a subspeciality in Addictions and a special interest in ADHD. I currently conduct all my psychiatric work via PsychiatryUK - you can find out more information here.

If you wish to contact me for a psychiatric appointment you can use the contact form linked below and put "Psychiatry" in the subject line, and I can arrange an appointment via the Psychiatry UK platform.

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy is an evidence-based way of helping people with the many unpredictable difficulties that people can encounter. I am currently in my final year of psychotherapy training and have a psychotherapy practice. I work with people in an individualised way, building up a careful picture of their past experiences and current difficulties. If we work together you can expect a warm and empathic approach. I practice in a practical, solutions-focused manner and collaboratively make plans with my clients, using a number of different interventions. These could include: lifestyle advice (sleep, exercise, nutrition etc.), medication, psychological techniques and psycho-education, with actionable advice that can be utilised in-between appointments.

Behaviour Change Coaching

Behaviour Change Coaching is an alternative to psychotherapy which takes clients through an 8-12 week process, focused on improving performance or achieving a particular goal or outcome. While psychotherapy is typically suited to clients who are looking for a longer, less directive process of self-exploration, behaviour change coaching is best suited to highly motivated clients who know what they want to achieve, but find themselves repeatedly stuck in an area of life. Coaching may also be helpful for clients who despite repeated courses of psychotherapy have not achieved what they set out to. This could be a concrete problem like a weight or addiction issue, or less concrete problems like relationship issues, attachment problems or career difficulties.
