Background and approach
She also incorporates mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people notice their patterns and move toward change. Alexandra explains how life circumstances - where someone lives, work demands, and close relationships - can affect mood and stress. She helps people put small, achievable steps into place and track what works.
Sessions often focus on skills you can use between meetings as well as talking through current problems. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Columbia University and practice across different settings. Alexandra has worked with people coping with both recent stressors and longer-term struggles, including chronic health conditions.
She aims to help people regain a sense of control and hope through steady, collaborative work. Alexandra offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, and text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling is arranged based on therapist availability.
How Alexandra Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Client-centered therapy is about listening first and basing work on each person's goals. Alexandra uses this approach to create a plan that fits a person's life and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. This approach can help with anxiety, stress, and low mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alexandra will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will try different techniques to find what helps. She checks in regularly to adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you have a face-to-face conversation, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat can work well for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
