About Alexandra
Alexandra Brink is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience. She brings a hopeful, down-to-earth presence and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, relationships, parenting concerns, and life changes. Alexandra earned her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Therapy from Regent University.
Early in her career she worked with children who had mood, behavior, or developmental differences. More recently she has focused on supporting adults with anxiety and related concerns.
Background and approach
Her approach blends person-centered care with solution-focused work. Alexandra listens first to understand where a person is coming from. Then she helps set practical goals and small steps that fit daily life.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral ideas to help people notice how thoughts and actions interact. Mindfulness practices are offered to build calm and attention in stressful moments. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are woven in when clients want clear, actionable change.
Alexandra also looks at the whole person - body, mind, and spiritual life - when that matters to the client. She understands how chronic illness, grief, and major life transitions can affect mood and energy. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, aiming to make therapy useful and manageable.
Outside of work, Alexandra lives in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area with her family and spends time painting. Her own experience with long-term health struggles informs her empathy for people facing ongoing challenges.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Alexandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy when working online. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, panic, and social worries. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase calm in stressful moments.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they tailor techniques and choose exercises that fit the person’s daily routine and needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions let people use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments.
