Alexandra Kiss

Alexandra Kiss is a BACP counsellor practising in England with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, burnout, trauma and life changes. Alexandra also supports those questioning career direction or life purpose and those dealing with grief and compassion fatigue.

Clients come for focused help with specific problems, or to better understand their patterns and reactions. Sessions are conversational and person-led, with Alexandra listening and reflecting to help people clarify what matters to them next. She uses an integrative approach that draws on person-centred ideas and motivational interviewing techniques.

Her background includes a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, an MSc in Health Psychology and a Level 4 Integrative Counselling qualification. Alexandra also holds a certificate in online and telephone counselling and continues professional development work.

She pays attention to practical concerns such as communication breakdown, commitment worries, family conflict, immigration-related stress and multicultural issues. Topics like abandonment, guilt, shame, jealousy and seasonal affective disorder are also within her stated focus areas.

Sessions begin with a consent process and a brief discussion of how the counselling will work. The emphasis is on clear, down-to-earth conversation that helps people consider options and next steps rather than offering quick fixes.

How Alexandra uses Client-Centred and Motivational approaches online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving people a non-directive space to talk through their concerns. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps the client work out what matters to them. This approach can help with relationship issues, self-esteem and decisions about life direction.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that explores a person's reasons for change. It looks at ambivalence and helps people weigh options in a collaborative way. This can be useful for career shifts, coping with life changes and managing low motivation linked to depression or burnout.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alexandra will discuss how these methods might fit the client's goals and preferences and will adapt the way she works in response to what emerges. The emphasis is on working together to identify practical next steps and clearer options.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel. Registered or accredited professionals often offer ways of working that suit everyday life, and Alexandra's certificate in online and telephone counselling indicates experience with remote sessions.
