About Alethia

Alethia Johnson is a UK-based counsellor with 25 years of experience supporting people through work and wellbeing concerns. She works with issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. Many clients come to her for help with career questions, workplace problems and finding a better balance between work and life.

Alethia keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens first, then helps people set small, achievable goals. Conversations look at thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and how these affect day-to-day functioning at work and at home.

She uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. That can include cognitive-behavioural techniques for managing anxious thoughts, acceptance strategies to tolerate difficult feelings, and attachment-informed ideas to understand relationship patterns. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behaviour therapy also appear when useful.

Alethia asks about what matters to a person at work and in life, then tailors the pace and focus. She aims for clear tools people can use between sessions, such as breathing or grounding techniques, thought records, or small behavioural experiments.

Sessions take place by video or messaging, and she works with people in the United Kingdom and the European Union. She cannot provide written proof of attendance to a third party, so clients who need that should check before booking.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Alethia commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then act on what matters. It can help when anxiety or uncertainty gets in the way of work and goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and uses practical exercises to reduce distress and improve functioning at work and home.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alethia works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She will check in regularly and adapt techniques as the work progresses so sessions stay relevant to day-to-day challenges.

The biography states sessions are offered by video and messaging only. If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time around work hours. They also make it simpler to continue meetings while living in different parts of the UK or the European Union.
