About Alexander
Alexander Weintroub works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and issues around self-esteem and motivation. He uses client-centred and attachment-informed ways of working and has four years of professional experience. Alexander is registered with NCPS.
He focuses on clear, grounded conversations. Sessions are used to talk through current problems, look at patterns in relationships, and notice thoughts and feelings that keep problems going. He aims to help people find practical steps they can try between sessions.
Alexander describes himself as someone who has been a therapy client himself, and he draws on that experience to shape how he listens. He tries to give clients space to bring what matters most at their own pace. That includes allowing time to process difficult memories or recent losses.
His background includes work with people facing attachment concerns and intimacy-related problems, and he also covers issues such as addiction, trauma and abuse, and anger. He uses techniques from cognitive behavioural work and mindfulness to help with anxiety and low mood, and emotionally-focused ideas when relationship patterns are the focus.
Sessions are conversational and practical. People can expect to explore how past experiences affect present relationships, notice unhelpful thinking, and practise small experiments to change behaviour. Alexander encourages questions about the process at any time.
How his approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current trust and closeness. Online sessions can be used to notice these patterns and try different ways of relating in real time. Client-centred work focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. In an online appointment this means the counsellor reflects what is said and helps the person make sense of their own experience. Cognitive behavioural work breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tests small changes. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood and for practical steps between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then decide together which methods to try. This is a collaborative plan that can change as the work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day, require less travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people attend when they cannot reach a practice in person, while still working on relationship patterns, anxiety management and practical behavioural steps.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
