Welcome to Weir Therapy
Hello! I'm Alex and I offer, professional counselling in London to help adults overcome anxiety, stress and low self esteem.
Often it can be hard to put a name to. You’re worn down, or stuck, or carrying something you can’t quite let go off. Maybe a loss or a change has left you unsteady, or a feeling that’s been there a long time has started to weigh more. You don’t need it worked out before you come. Bringing it into the room, with someone alongside you, is where it starts.
Perhaps you’re constantly putting pressure on yourself, struggling to switch off, or feeling stuck in patterns that leave you anxious, overwhelmed, or low in mood. You may look as though you’re coping on the outside, while privately feeling lost, disconnected, or unlike yourself.
My aim is to support you to understand yourself, find calm, and live authentically. Therapy can offer a space to explore your experiences, navigate difficult emotions, and create meaningful change.
If any of this feels familiar, you’re not alone. You might be:
- Constantly overthinking conversations and decisions
- Feeling anxious without fully understanding why
- Struggling with low confidence or self-criticism
- Feeling overwhelmed by work, relationships or family pressures
- Finding it difficult to switch off and relax
- Feeling stuck, lost or disconnected from yourself
I specialise in supporting adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem and periods of emotional overwhelm. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply have a sense that something isn’t quite right, therapy can offer a space to pause, reflect and make sense of what you’re going through. I can also help adults that might be wondering whether they could be neurodivergent.
Have you found yourself thinking:
- Could I Be Neurodivergent?
- About ADHD or Autism?
- How Do I Make Sense of My Experiences
- How can I Explore and Understand ADHD & Autism
My approach is warm, down-to-earth and tailored to you as an individual. I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable enough to be yourself, without fear of judgement or pressure to have all the answers. Rather than following a rigid model, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to support your unique needs and circumstances.
Alongside anxiety and depression, I also have experience supporting people through bereavement, fertility challenges, baby loss, anger, life transitions and questions around identity and self-worth.
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting. That’s why I offer a free introductory call, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, tell me a little about what’s bringing you to counselling, and decide whether working together feels right for you.
I offer both online and in-person appointments, with flexible options including weekly, fortnightly and ad-hoc sessions. I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor and welcome self-funding clients, BUPA members and trainee counsellors.
