Alison Moore , BACP

Alison Moore approaches emotional distress as meaningful information rather than a problem to be dismissed. She offers a calm, respectful space where feelings can be explored and understood, helping people make sense of anxiety, depression, grief, and the weight of life changes. Whether someone is coping with trauma, navigating neurodivergence, or seeking clearer connections in relationships, she adapts her approach to what will be most useful in each situation.

As a fully qualified integrative therapist, Alison blends methods from different therapeutic models to suit the needs of the individual. She listens with empathy and without judgment, working collaboratively so the pace and focus of therapy reflect each person’s goals. Reaching out can feel uncertain, and Alison recognizes that first steps take courage; she aims to make the process supportive, professional, and practical.

Alison holds the BACP credential, which signifies membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and indicates commitment to professional standards of practice. Her work centers on helping people regain direction, reduce overwhelming symptoms, and build greater understanding of their inner experience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Alison draws on approaches that support practical change and deeper understanding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting those experiences dictate their choices, and can be useful for anxiety, stress, and when life feels directionless. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns influence emotions and behaviour, which can help with abandonment, attachment challenges, and difficulties in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s lead to promote self-understanding and personal growth.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alison works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the focus as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility that suits many lifestyles. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, people can access support from home or while travelling, schedule sessions around work and caregiving, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to provide meaningful and practical support.
