About Alexis
Alexis Reid-Hamilton is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people through grief, parenting challenges and low self-esteem. He brings 14 years of experience in supporting people who are coping with depression, stress and anxiety. Alexis aims to meet each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion. He works to make the first step feel manageable and practical.
In sessions Alexis shapes conversations around what matters most to the client. He listens for strengths and goals, then focuses on steps that feel doable in day-to-day life. He draws on motivational interviewing to help people find and keep momentum when change feels hard. Solution-focused ideas are used to set short-term goals and build on what is already working.
His background includes long experience with relationship concerns and trauma and abuse, and he offers practical support for attachment issues and family-of-origin difficulties. He also supports people dealing with blended family issues, domestic violence aftermath, guilt, shame and isolation. Multicultural concerns and building self-love are part of his work.
Sessions are guided by what each person needs, with a shared plan shaped over time. Alexis avoids one-size-fits-all solutions and prefers straightforward conversation and clear next steps. He will work with clients to rehearse new ways of coping and to track small changes.
Alexis is based in the United Kingdom and holds BACP, which is shown here as the credential he uses professionally. He offers appointments through the usual site booking flow and asks people to start by completing the short matching questionnaire.
How his approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their priorities at the centre of each session. The counsellor listens and reflects, helping clients clarify what matters and choose their next steps. Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find internal reasons to change and stay motivated, which is useful for parenting goals, managing depression or building confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alexis will explore a person’s goals and preferences and agree on a plan that mixes these methods. This is a collaborative process where techniques are tested and adapted as progress is tracked.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping momentum between appointments. Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the site lists current options. Many people find remote appointments easier to schedule around childcare, work breaks or travel commitments, and short focused sessions can make check-ins simpler while working towards longer-term goals.
