A calm and empathetic therapist, Alyson aims to create a warm, non-judgemental, and safe environment in which to support clients to work through current difficulties, understand past experiences and enable them to identify and realise their therapeutic goals.

A support volunteer with national cancer and bereavement charities, Alyson has experience of working with anxiety, bereavement, bullying, cancer, depression, grief, loss, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, stress, trauma, and work-related issues.

Following a 25-year corporate career including managerial roles in sales and procurement settings within multinational companies and inspired by her own transformative experience of personal therapy Alyson decided to retrain as a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor at the Northern Guild, specialising in Adults.

She lived and worked abroad for 20 years and is fluent in both French and Italian.
