About Alexandria

Background and approach

Sessions are framed around clear goals like improving self-esteem, handling grief, or coping with trauma and abuse. Alexandria has worked in both in-patient and outpatient settings and has provided care in-person and via telehealth. She also facilitates group counseling focused on acculturation, adjustment, behavior, goal-setting, self-esteem, self-harm, and trauma.

That mix of settings has shaped a practical style that balances skill-building with emotional support. People who come to her often need help with parenting stress, family problems, communication issues, or career-related pressure. She also supports those facing abandonment, attachment concerns, body image struggles, codependency, and isolation.

Sessions aim to boost confidence and reduce the everyday weight of these problems. Therapy with Alexandria emphasizes collaboration. She treats each person as the expert in their life and works alongside them to identify strengths and redirect toward greater wellbeing.

The focus is on useful strategies, steady progress, and helping clients regain a sense of control and hope.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person's pace and priorities, offering a supportive space where the therapist listens and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach is useful for people who want to feel understood and build confidence before trying new strategies.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches straightforward skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It works well for anxiety, stress, and low mood by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new habits between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people recognize and shift patterns in close relationships and strong emotions. It can be helpful for improving communication, reducing repeated conflicts, and healing from attachment wounds.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what is helpful. Clients and the therapist work together to decide which tools make the most difference for daily life.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth, live chat can be used for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice skills without long travel times.
