Alan Morris, NCPS

Alan Morris helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career uncertainty, depression and big life changes. He works with sexual dysfunction and other sexuality-related concerns alongside issues such as obsessions, compulsions and process addictions. Alan presents a calm presence so people feel able to talk about difficult topics and make practical changes.

He uses straightforward, conversational sessions. Alan listens carefully and helps people make sense of events and relationships that have affected them. Sessions focus on small steps you can try between meetings rather than long lectures or jargon.

Alan blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also draws on solution-focused techniques to build on what is already working. This mix supports people who want clear strategies and a compassionate ear.

He has 11 years of experience and lists NCPS as his credential, which is shown as NCPS in his profile. Over that time he has worked with more than 200 clients on a range of concerns, offering both counselling and life or work coaching where appropriate.

Alan asks people to be candid about what they hope to achieve so sessions can be shaped around their priorities. He aims for a practical, down-to-earth approach that helps people feel more able to cope and to make steady progress in everyday life.

How Alan’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The counsellor offers an accepting, non-judgemental space so people can speak openly and set their own pace; this can help with relationship issues, loneliness and sexual concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses simple exercises to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It is often chosen for anxiety, depression and compulsive patterns because it gives practical steps to try between sessions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable goals. Rather than spending long on history, it looks at what is already working and how to do more of it, which can suit people wanting quick, practical progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alan will discuss what matters to the client and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. He treats the choice of method as a collaboration based on goals and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. They can also let you choose quieter surroundings and avoid camera use if preferred.
