About me
I’m Alexandra Amor, a psychologist with almost 10 years of clinical experience supporting adults through life transitions, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, and relationship challenges. Throughout my work, I’ve been especially drawn to the moments in life when people feel “in between”. Between who they used to be and who they are becoming, between countries and identities, between what they have lived through and what they hope to create. Many of my clients are people living abroad who, despite being capable and resilient, feel lonely, disconnected, or emotionally stuck. Migration can be a powerful and enriching experience, but it can also activate deep vulnerability: the loss of familiar support systems, cultural adaptation, identity shifts, and the emotional weight of starting over while still carrying old wounds.
At this stage of my career, I have a special interest in relational trauma and in understanding how early attachment experiences shape the way we relate to ourselves and to others. I believe that much of our emotional pain begins to make sense when we look at it through the lens of our personal history and our inner system. In therapy, we work together to identify patterns that may be repeating in your relationships, your inner dialogue, and your coping strategies not with judgment, but with curiosity and compassion. My goal is to help you feel safer within yourself, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier ways of connecting, setting boundaries, and expressing your needs.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based psychotherapy. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space where you can slow down, feel truly seen, and explore your inner world at your own pace. Therapy with me is not only about symptom relief, it is about meaningful transformation. Reconnecting with your strengths, healing the parts of you that feel burdened or alone, and rewriting your story with more clarity, self-trust, and emotional freedom.
Whether you’re navigating a difficult transition, struggling in your relationship, or simply longing to feel more at home within yourself, you don’t have to do it alone.

Approach
My therapeutic style is integrative, meaning I draw from different evidence-based approaches depending on each client’s needs, goals, and personal story. I began my clinical training with a strong psychodynamic foundation, which continues to shape the way I understand emotional pain, relational patterns, and the influence of early experiences. This perspective helps us explore not only what is happening in your life today, but also why certain emotions, beliefs, or relationship dynamics may feel so familiar and difficult to shift. Over time, I expanded my training through postgraduate studies in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Systemic Therapy.
More recently, I completed my training as an Internal Family Systems (IFS) Practitioner, which has become an essential part of my work. IFS offers a compassionate and empowering way to understand our inner world, recognising that we all have different “parts” within us. I have some protective parts and some wounded, that developed for good reasons. In therapy, we work gently to build inner safety, deepen self-understanding, and heal the parts of you that carry emotional burdens, fear, or pain.
