About Alexsandro
Alexsandro Amaral is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who focuses on men’s wellbeing and common concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and intimacy-related issues. He works with people experiencing ADHD, relationship and communication problems, anger, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. He also supports those navigating LGBT matters and gender dysphoria. Alexsandro speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese which can help when language or cultural context matters.
He describes his approach as person-centred and collaborative. Sessions aim to identify what matters most to the person and build on their strengths. He draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioural methods and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help with thoughts, habits and distressing feelings.
Alexsandro also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Conversations often examine trust, closeness and boundary issues, and how these affect intimacy and connection. He pays attention to attention and focus difficulties, offering strategies for concentration and memory challenges.
With three years of practice, he brings a straightforward and empathetic style. People can expect calm, direct conversation and goal-focused steps between sessions. The emphasis is on small, manageable changes rather than big immediate fixes.
He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and frustration that gets in the way of everyday life.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationship patterns affect current connections and trust. It is often used when people struggle with intimacy, fear of abandonment or repeating unhelpful relationship cycles.
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person so they can find their own solutions. This approach supports self-esteem and builds a trusting therapeutic relationship.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape the plan rather than imposing one style from the start.
Confirm the current online session options before booking. Many people find online therapy fits into busy days because it reduces travel and can be easier to schedule around work or family commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins on a busy day or sessions in another language such as Spanish or Portuguese when needed. Registered or accredited professionals adapt tasks and exercises to work well in remote sessions so progress can continue even when meeting at a distance.
