About Alexander
Alexander Haney is a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Specialist (LPC, LPC-MHSP) based in Tennessee. He focuses on anxiety and related concerns and works with people who want practical change. He aims to make therapy understandable and useful from the first session.
Haney uses clear, goal-focused methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. He helps clients learn manageable skills to reduce worry, handle panic, and face difficult situations.
Background and approach
He also applies relationship-focused tools for intimacy and communication challenges. With six years of clinical experience, he has supported people with depression, mood disorders, trauma, addictions, and obsessive-compulsive concerns. He also addresses grief, anger, self-esteem, and life transitions.
Haney pays attention to co-morbidity and overlapping problems so treatment fits the whole person. Sessions are collaborative and action-oriented. Haney encourages people new to therapy to set practical goals and practice skills between meetings.
He offers both shorter-term work and longer-term support based on what each person needs. His approach is direct but respectful. He helps clients define what matters to them, try new ways of coping, and build routines that support long-term change.
People who want a clear plan and steady progress often find this style helpful.
How his approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people focus on what matters most and take steps toward those values even when anxiety shows up. It teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and move toward meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks big problems into smaller parts and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for panic, social anxiety, and obsessive thoughts.Choosing an approach is a team effort. He will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, and then suggest methods to try. The plan can change over time based on what helps most, and he encourages clients to give feedback about what feels useful.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face work and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text are useful for quick skills practice, notes between sessions, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options make regular therapy easier to keep up with around work, school, and family obligations.
