About Alice

BACP counsellor with 4 years of experience. Alice Langford helps people manage stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, depression and ADHD. She works from a person-centred perspective and draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques.

Alice uses straightforward conversation to help people talk through what matters to them. She aims to make sessions predictable and focused so clients can name problems and try practical ways to respond. Her lived experience of neurodivergence informs how she listens and how she adjusts pacing and structure in sessions.

In sessions she invites clear descriptions of difficult moments. That might mean looking at how thoughts and feelings affect day-to-day choices. It can also mean mapping out practical steps for getting through a hard day, managing overwhelm, or responding differently in family interactions.

She pays attention to communication patterns and family of origin issues when they are relevant. Work can include looking at boundaries, codependency, control issues, commitment concerns, and problems with isolation or shame. When trauma or dissociation comes up, she works at a steady pace and follows the client’s lead.

Alice combines a person-centred stance with evidence-based techniques to help clients test new ways of behaving and thinking. Sessions aim to be clear, practical and paced to the client’s needs. Prospective clients in the United Kingdom should confirm current session options before booking.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Person-centred counselling places attention on the client’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens, reflects and helps the person set the pace. It suits people who want a collaborative space to make sense of feelings and to try new ways of responding to stress and relationship issues.

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques refer to practical methods that target specific thoughts and behaviours. These can include structured exercises, short skills practice and step-by-step planning to manage anxiety, low mood or trauma symptoms. Those techniques are used to test small changes and measure what helps.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to identify what feels most useful, combining person-centred conversations with evidence-based methods as needed. That decision is made together, based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when required, and reduce travel time. It can also allow for different ways of working with communication problems, ADHD-related planning and family of origin themes without promising any particular format.
