About Reuben
Reuben Alexander is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression and life changes, and supports concerns such as sleep problems, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues. He also helps with trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, anger and self-esteem.
His practice blends methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Sessions emphasise exploring past experiences and current patterns to understand what keeps problems active. He aims to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and develop practical ways to respond differently.
Reuben describes working directly with men and also with women, and he pays attention to how gender expectations shape feelings and behaviour. He uses conversational, straightforward sessions that look at beliefs, emotional responses and relationship patterns. Practical exercises and reflective conversation are common parts of the work.
He brings particular focus to attachment and fatherhood issues, communication difficulties, control and impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness or shame. He also lists support for neurodiversity topics such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and for gender dysphoria related concerns.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches inform online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and managing stress by shifting focus from avoiding feelings to living with them more purposefully.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections. It can help where people struggle with closeness, abandonment fears or repeating difficult relationship dynamics.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and then try methods that match the client's needs. That decision is made together and can change as progress evolves.
The biography does not list specific online formats. Please confirm which session types are offered before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel, reduce time spent commuting, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt ACT and attachment work to remote conversation and practical exercises, so the core focus on values, patterns and relationships carries through to online sessions.
