Integrative Therapy
Integrative therapy combines multiple approaches flexibly, creating a personalised strategy that adapts to your needs and promotes lasting change.
A space that works around you
There is no fixed path in counselling.
We work at your pace, focusing on what matters to you. You do not need to prepare or have the right words. We start where you are.
For individuals and employers
I offer counselling for individuals and workplace support for organisations.
- One to one counselling in Morpeth or online
- Employee counselling and workplace support
- Short-term or ongoing sessions
How I can help
You may be dealing with something specific or feeling overwhelmed without knowing why. Counselling in Morpeth can help you understand what is happening and find a way forward.
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression and low mood
- Grief and bereavement
- Trauma and past experiences
- Relationship difficulties
- Work-related stress
Counselling can help you understand what is going on and find a way forward that feels right for you.
A flexible, personalised approach
My work is person-centred and integrative. Sessions are shaped around your needs rather than a fixed method.
I draw from a range of counselling approaches to support you in a way that fits your situation, whether you are dealing with anxiety, grief, low mood, or life changes.
We work together to understand what is happening and find a way forward that feels right for you.
The aim is to help you build understanding, develop coping strategies, and feel more in control.

What is person-centred therapy?
Creating an empathetic, non-judgmental environment where your innate capacity for healing and growth is honoured.
I use a range of counselling approaches to support different needs.

In CBT, you’ll explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

Using strategies such as mindfulness and emotion regulation.
Trauma-Focused Therapy
Trauma-focused therapy is gentle and paced at your comfort.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Exploring how early relational experiences influence current patterns in relationships and overall wellbeing.

Interpersonal therapy targets how relationship patterns and life events affect your emotional well-being.

Client feedback
“I would like to send you a huge thank you for your help over the last year. You have been so very helpful, giving practical advice and support after my domestic abuse ordeal. You've been my voice of reason, helping me to ground myself and avoid overthinking, as well as giving me confidence to take back control of my life. I have learned so much from you and from the information and links you've provided. I'm back on my feet with new boundaries and a positive outlook for the first time in 2 years. I can't thank you enough. I wouldn't hesitate to contact you again if required and would 100% recommend you to others.”
“Working with Alison has been wonderful and I would highly recommend her as a therapist. She is an attentive listener, very easy to talk to and has a calm and empathetic demeanour which always made me feel very at ease. I opened about issues that I've kept bottled up for years, and she responded supportively and compassionately, whilst offering tools to help me cope with the problem. I'm incredibly grateful for the positive impact she's had on my outlook for life.”
“Alison is a compassionate person, who listens without judgment. She is easy to talk with and one immediately feels safe. She gives wise counsel and is very supportive. I would highly recommend her.”
“Alison provided me with support to learn and strengthen so many life skills that I felt I lacked. I used to find it very difficult expressing my emotions and would mask as a positive people-pleaser. Through our sessions she made me more self-aware and helped me to look at difficult emotional situations from a different perspective. This then led to helping me look within to see who I was and what my needs were. Now I can comfortably set boundaries and I am more assertive and able to express my wants and needs. Alison always gave me a non-judgmental space to be heard while I worked through a difficult time.”
“Alison is a fabulous and experienced therapist. She has a gentle empathic manner and really helped me discuss deeply sensitive problems and explore why I was facing the difficulties that had become so painful in my life. She set me on the right track and session by session I felt better. Highly recommended”
“Alison helped me through an extremely difficult time in my life with calm kindness and understanding that was exactly what I needed at that point. She gave me the tools to manage my emotions and deal with events in my life in a positive productive way. I will forever be grateful for the impact she has had in my life.”
