About Alison
Alison Moore is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and ADHD. She also supports issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, chronic pain and illness, communication problems, workplace stress and concerns around guilt and shame.
Alison uses an integrative way of working, drawing on several approaches to match what someone needs in the moment. Sessions focus on practical conversation and reflection. People can expect to talk through what is happening, look at thoughts and patterns, and try small changes between meetings.
Her work often helps those dealing with the aftermath of loss or traumatic events, and people who feel stuck because of worry or low mood. She pays attention to attachment and how early relationships can affect current feelings and choices. For someone managing ADHD symptoms, sessions may include ways to structure tasks and reduce overwhelm.
Alison describes therapy as collaborative. She listens, checks what is useful, and adapts methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, mindfulness practices and client-centred conversation. That mix aims to make sessions realistic and relevant to daily life.
Many clients come with long-standing shame or guilt about actions, identities or relationships. Alison will explore those feelings alongside practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. If you choose to start, the first sessions focus on clarifying goals and how you want to proceed.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without trying to push them away, then choosing actions that align with personal values; it can help when guilt or shame gets in the way of everyday life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and testing small, practical changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to early relationship patterns and how they shape current reactions and connections with others.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alison will talk with the client about their goals, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust the focus if something is not helpful. The process is collaborative and practical, with short-term techniques and longer conversations as needed.
