Alexsandro Amaral is a BACP-registered psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with three years of professional practice. He supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBT-related concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. He also works with concerns such as attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, and gender dysphoria.
He uses an integrative, person-centred approach that draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Sessions are conversational and practical. People can expect to talk about current patterns, identify unhelpful habits, and try small changes between meetings.

He pays attention to challenges with concentration, memory and organisation, and helps people find concrete ways to manage those difficulties. He also addresses intimacy, kink and alternative sex culture topics without judgement.
He offers therapy in English, Spanish and Portuguese, which can help people navigating life across different cultures and locations. The emphasis is on clear, straightforward discussion about what isnt working and what might be worth changing next.

Clients are encouraged to set realistic goals and test small steps between sessions. Assessing what helps and adjusting the approach over time is part of the process. His multilingual skills support people who prefer English, Spanish or Portuguese conversation.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Aceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values. It helps when people feel stuck or unsure what matters after a life change by linking choices to what matters most.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current intimacy and trust. It can be useful for people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues or recurring relationship problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with the client to try methods, see what helps, and adjust plans over time based on the persons needs and preferences.
Confirm the session formats before booking so you know which options are offered.

It also supports people living abroad or preferring to meet in a different language. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements and adapt meetings to suit routines and commitments.
