Alexandra (Alex) Handford (my pronouns are she/her)

Hello, my name is Alex, I'm a professional qualified Gestalt counsellor working therapeutically with adults and young people. I specialise in a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, attachment, trauma, loss, grief, stress, low self-esteem, mental health, self-harm, suicide ideation and other life challenges. I offer a non judgemental support to explore these issues either face to face from a safe confidential counselling room in Salisbury or via Zoom/Teams. 

Alongside my private practice I work in differing environments including NHS, providing counselling services for service users, a local service provider offering counselling to people who have experienced sexual & domestic abuse, and a local charity counselling children and young people. 

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). I am fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS certificate.
