About Alexandra
Alexandra Grimes helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strains, or life changes. She greets each person with compassion and simple, clear listening. Sessions are built around what matters to the individual and what feels manageable for them.
Alexandra uses a person-centred approach that keeps the client’s experience at the heart of the work. She adapts the pace and focus to suit each person, letting them set the agenda while offering gentle guidance.
Background and approach
She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking and solution-focused ideas to identify small, practical steps forward. Her five years of professional experience include supporting people through depression, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy and sexual issues, eating and sleeping problems, and challenges linked to parenting, career, ADHD and self-esteem.
She also works with concerns such as bereavement, chronic illness, body image, attachment difficulties and communication problems. Sessions are available in English and can be delivered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. International clients may arrange online work according to scheduling and availability.
Alexandra aims to create a warm, non-judgemental atmosphere where people can talk honestly about what’s difficult for them. She invites people to take the first step by choosing the format that suits them and bringing one small thing they want to change. The early sessions focus on understanding current problems and agreeing clear, realistic goals.
From there the work is practical, collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Alexandra talks with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggests ways of working that match those aims. She checks in regularly and adjusts the focus if something isn’t helping, so the plan evolves with the client’s needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and help build a working relationship. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or suit people with lower bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients share thoughts between sessions or use a message when a quick update or reflection is useful. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while still focusing on steady progress.
