Alexis Pass , BACP

Alexis Pass is a fully qualified counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK professional body for counselling. With 17 years of clinical experience, she offers a calm, client-led space where people can speak as much or as little as they prefer and progress at a pace that feels right for them.

She works with children, teenagers, adults and couples, and provides relationship counselling alongside individual therapy. Her current practice settings include doctors' surgeries, schools and face-to-face sessions in her office, and she also accepts referrals from other counselling organisations when needed.

Alexis began her studies in childcare and gained practical experience on a grief team, which informs her sensitive approach to loss and bereavement. She communicates in English and American Sign Language and has experience supporting people who are deaf. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family issues, parenting and blended family dynamics, LGBT matters, anger and self-esteem, career and life changes, and ADHD, among other challenges.

Across sessions Alexis aims to collaborate with each person to understand their circumstances and goals, tailoring her approach to fit the individual needs of children, individuals and couples alike.

Client-Centered and Imago Approaches Delivered Online

Alexis Pass draws on client-centered therapy as a core approach - this means the work focuses on the individual and their experience, with the therapist offering empathy, acceptance and gentle guidance to help clients explore feelings and find their own solutions. It can be especially helpful for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life transitions.

She also uses Imago Relationship Therapy for couples, a structured method that helps partners improve communication, understand recurring conflicts and rebuild connection by learning new dialogue and empathy skills. This approach is suited to relationship repair, communication difficulties and commitment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Alexis collaborates with each person or couple to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She encourages an open conversation about what feels helpful and adapts techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, reduce travel time and increase access for people who live far away or need alternative communication methods such as American Sign Language.
