About
Alison May is an inclusive counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She trained in an integrative style of therapy, drawing on a range of approaches to tailor support to each person’s needs. She aims to meet people where they are and works flexibly to provide practical and compassionate support. Alison treats therapy as a collaborative process - she works together with people as a team and believes each person is the expert on their own story. She recognises the courage it takes to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and is there to support and empower people through that change. Her experience covers a variety of concerns including anxiety, matters of sexuality and gender, relationship difficulties, addiction, depression, trauma, uncertainty about how to move forward in life, self-esteem issues, and the effects of life-changing diagnoses. Alison is a strong ally to people of colour and to trans people, and she brings both lived personal experience and specific training and professional experience working with LGBT+ people and neurodiverse people, with a particular interest in ADHD and Autism.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?
Many people wonder whether online therapy can genuinely help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. One of the main advantages is flexibility - people can connect with a therapist in the format that suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life. All therapists are licensed professionals, and people may choose to switch therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit. Online therapy offers an accessible way to seek support while maintaining the same professional standards expected from in-person care.How much experience does Alison May have?
