Alex Bickford Psychotherapy
Hello and Welcome
So much of how we experience the world (our relationships, our stress, our sense of self) is shaped by what came before. Early experiences and the coping patterns we built around them do not just disappear with time. They can resurface later in life as anxiety, as difficulty moving through loss, or as a quiet feeling of being stuck.
I work relationally, which means I believe that establishing trust is at the heart of our work together. Confidentiality and respect are fundamental elements of therapy, and I am committed to offering care that is respectful and responsive to your needs.
By offering a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and behavioural patterns, and bringing them into awareness, I can help you feel more able to cope with challenging circumstances. As an integrative psychotherapist, I draw on a variety of theories and techniques to help inform my approach, tailoring our sessions according to what feels right for you.
How I can help
Therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and make sense of your life.
Addiction
Support to explore the roots of addictive behaviours and develop healthier ways of coping.
Anxiety & Stress
A therapeutic space to explore overwhelm, manage worry, and develop greater emotional resilience.
Bereavement
Compassionate support navigating grief, loss, and the challenging emotions that follow.
Depression
Help to navigate low mood, isolation, and disconnection, and move towards feeling more connected and supported.
Eating Disorders
A gentle, non-judgmental space to explore your relationship with food and body image.
Relationship Difficulties
Support to make sense of conflict, connection, boundaries, and emotional needs.
“We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know”

In person in Central London, or online
I offer face-to-face, in-person therapy from a private and comfortable therapy room at two locations, a short walk from King’s Cross St Pancras for the first and Oxford Circus for the second. Sessions are also available online.
