About Allegra
Allegra Wassef offers a client-centred way of working that keeps the person at the heart of therapy. She introduces herself simply and kindly, listening first and asking questions to understand what matters most. Her style is warm and down-to-earth so people can talk about tough things without feeling judged.
Allegra has three years of experience and holds a BACP credential, which is listed as her professional registration. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression.
How Allegra works
She also supports those coping with life changes and relationship challenges. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Allegra uses the client-centred approach to help people explore feelings and make choices that fit their values.
Conversations often lead to practical steps people can try between sessions to build coping skills and confidence. She pays attention to related concerns such as attachment difficulties, body image and loneliness. Allegra can also discuss life purpose, sexuality, pregnancy and childbirth, and issues that often affect women.
These topics are tackled one step at a time and at a pace the person chooses. People meet Allegra by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. The initial process is straightforward: complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session.
She works collaboratively to set goals and adjust the approach as therapy progresses.

Client-centred approaches and online support
Client-centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what is heard and helps the person make their own decisions. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and when people are unsure what direction to take.Allegra will treat finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will listen to your goals and preferences, and together you will decide how best to work. Adjustments can happen as progress is made and needs change, so the plan evolves with you.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow longer conversations and non-verbal contact. Phone sessions can fit into a shorter break or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to arrange therapy around work, family life and travel, and they allow registered or accredited professionals to reach people across different locations.
