About Alexsandro
He uses an integrative, person‑centred style. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and build on their own strengths. Practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy are used alongside a focus on attachment and meaning. The aim is to improve concentration, manage strong emotions and make changes that feel doable.
Alexsandro treats issues related to addiction, anger, codependency and problems with communication and commitment. He also addresses body image, intimacy questions, shame or guilt, and life transitions such as separation. He offers support around BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture in a non‑judgemental way.
He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and has three years of professional experience. That background informs the practical, conversational approach he brings to sessions. People seeking therapy are invited to set clear goals and review progress together.

Step 3
How his approaches translate to online counselling
Alexsandro commonly blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment‑Based Therapy alongside client‑centred work. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values, which can aid anxiety, low mood and motivation problems. Attachment work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people change unhelpful ways of relating that fuel conflict or avoidant behaviour.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. Sessions begin with discussion about what the person hopes to change and then adjust methods as progress is reviewed.
Confirming the exact session options before booking is advised, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quieter check‑ins or shorter practical sessions when needed. Many people find video or phone sessions help them stay consistent and apply tools between meetings, while multilingual support in English, Spanish and Portuguese can help when language or cultural context matters.
