Alex Vale

Hello, my name is Alex.

​

I have always been passionate, empathic and kind-hearted. At a young age I cared for those around me and created an environment where people felt heard and respected. I decided to develop these attributes into a career that I love.

I have worked in many care-based settings throughout my life, these included multiple mental health and support roles. I also worked with young people as a wellbeing coach, supporting those that struggle with achievement, anxiety, depression, trauma, body image and pride. Currently, alongside working at Claire Reeves Coaching and Counselling, I also work as a trauma-informed psychotherapist at a sexual violence service, exploring relationships, attachment, intimacy and PTSD like symptoms. I have seen first-hand the potential that every one of us has to grow and flourish, no matter the experiences and difficulties we have been through.

​

In 2021, I graduated from Derby University with a degree in Counselling Principles and Practices. Since graduating I have also received a postgraduate certificate and diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, I am currently in my final year of my Masters Degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy.  I hold a student membership with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I am fully insured.

​

As an integrative psychotherapist I believe that no two people are the same, therefore I tailor counselling to support you as an individual and any goals you have. You deserve to have an open, safe and respective space to explore and develop your personal growth with no judgement.

​

In my spare time I enjoy cooking and baking with friends and family. I am also passionate about literature and reading any genre of books. I spend lots of time outdoors, going on hikes and adventures with my family and my dog Stella.

I look forward to working with you and hearing from you soon!
