Background and approach
Alexandra pays attention to life transitions and the small, everyday struggles that add up. Her style centers on listening first and helping each person find what makes sense for them. She uses client-centered work to follow the person's lead, narrative ideas to reframe difficult stories, and trauma-focused methods when past hurts are keeping someone stuck.
Conversations are practical and focused on what can change now. Alexandra often helps people sort relationship and intimacy issues, body image and eating concerns, sleep problems, and distress related to identity and LGBT matters. She also supports those coping with hospice and end-of-life stress, family of origin wounds, and separation or divorce.
Sessions are offered in English and follow a straightforward process. Alexandra encourages people to take small steps, try changes between sessions, and notice what shifts. Her approach is steady, direct, and respectful of each person's pace.
Approach and online therapy that fits your life
Client-centered therapy means the conversation follows the person. The therapist listens without jumping to fixes, reflects what matters most, and helps clients decide next steps. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and everyday stress.Narrative therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves. Together the therapist and client look at those stories, notice unhelpful patterns, and try new ways of talking about identity and experience. This method can help with grief, body image, and family of origin issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level, adjusting over time as progress and priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video fits deeper conversation and visual connection, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins, live chat works for focused moments during a busy day, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and daily life.
