Alex Jurgensen
No-faff counselling service. Because starting therapy doesn't have to be another source of stress.
I offer a simple and straightforward online counselling service. Just get in touch and we will schedule an initial session -- which will be entirely free of charge! -- where we will get to know each other. I'll get the chance to understand what's happening for you, and you'll get the chance to get to know me and understand how I work.

About me and my practice
I believe that life is filled with challenges and obstacles for a reason, that these have inherent in them a great potential for personal growth and transformation that only becomes manifest once we face our pain and endeavour to understand it.
The therapy that I offer is designed with the goal of providing space to ourselves, to our difficult thoughts and emotions. As long as we keep them at arms length, or hidden in a dark corner, life will remain superficial, unsatisfying, and conflict-ridden.
On the contrary, when we find the courage to face and understand our pain, not only do we find better ways of dealing with it, but it also becomes a pathway through which we can know ourselves more deeply.
This is how Rumi put it: 'Don't turn away. Keep your gaze on the bandaged place. That's where the light enters you.'
You will be asked to guide the sessions to those topics that you find the most important to discuss. I will help you to dig deeper into them as we go, and I will constantly encourage you to keep reflecting on how you feel about the matter at hand.
The first step towards overcoming our sorrow is to listen to what it has to tell us: the lesson that it is here to teach us. What we will aim towards is showing you how you can lower your barriers, face the pain you're carrying, and learn to stop resisting it.
