About Alexis

Alexis Reid-Hamilton is a counsellor who uses a client-focused approach to help people manage grief, parenting strain, low self-esteem and depression. He draws on 14 years of experience in the UK to offer steady, practical support. Alexis works in a respectful and compassionate way and aims to make first steps feel manageable.

He tailors conversations to each person rather than applying one fixed method. Sessions concentrate on what matters most right now, whether that is getting through a recent loss, finding confidence, or coping with stress.

Background and approach

He listens for strengths and small changes that can lead to practical improvements. Alexis combines client-centred work with motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques. That means he helps people clarify their priorities, find internal motivation and try short-term strategies that may help.

These approaches are useful for addressing relationship tension, attachment concerns and life transitions. He also has experience with trauma and abuse, domestic violence, blended family issues and family of origin problems. Clients who feel isolated, ashamed or uncertain about multicultural pressures can find a space to talk these through.

Alexis supports practical steps towards self-love and rebuilding routine when life changes feel overwhelming. Sessions can be adapted to different needs and preferences, with conversation paced to suit the individual. He approaches each person with sensitivity and aims to build trust steadily so people can make choices that fit their lives.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Working online with client-centred and solution-focused methods

Alexis uses client-centred therapy to put the person's experience at the centre of the work. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting feelings and helping someone find their own next steps, which can help with grief, anxiety and low self-worth.

He also uses solution-focused therapy and motivational interviewing. Solution-focused work looks for small, practical changes to try between sessions. Motivational interviewing helps people explore their reasons for change and strengthen their own motivation when they feel stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy relationship. Alexis will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels realistic. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time in a collaborative way.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls work well for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging lets people check in or do shorter exchanges. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare or other daily commitments while trying approaches that may lead to steady change.
