Alice Spencer, BACP

Alice Spencer is a person-centred psychotherapist and creative counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She draws on a background working across healthcare, higher education, the charity sector and private practice to support people navigating relationship difficulties, family challenges, grief, depression and significant life changes. As a practitioner holding the BACP credential - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she offers a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where clients aged 11 to 65 can explore difficult feelings and life stories.

Alice adopts a collaborative, relational style that makes space for reflection, emotional processing and deeper self-connection. Therapy can be tailored to individual preferences, whether through traditional talking therapy, creative expression or a blended approach that mixes both. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including cultural and racial identity, bereavement, relationship breakdown, and transitions across the lifespan, and brings an adaptable and flexible stance to each person she meets.

In sessions Alice aims to provide fresh perspectives, opportunities for insight and a steady presence for exploring inner experience at emotional depth, helping clients feel seen, heard and valued as they work toward clearer understanding and change.

Person-centred and Creative Approaches for Online Support

Alice works from a person-centred framework that focuses on the client’s own experience, offering empathy, acceptance and a non-directive presence. This approach helps people who are coping with relationship issues, grief, depression and life transitions by creating space to explore feelings and values at their own pace.

Alongside person-centred work, Alice uses creative counselling methods that invite different forms of expression. Creative approaches allow aspects of experience that are hard to put into words to be explored through imagination and alternative modes of expression, which can be helpful for processing loss, identity questions and family dynamics.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Alice will collaborate with each client to determine what fits best based on needs, goals and personal preferences. That collaborative planning helps ensure sessions remain relevant and responsive.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility - appointments can fit around work, caring commitments and mobility needs. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver meaningful support through these channels, making therapy more accessible while preserving a steady therapeutic relationship.
