Coaching-style conversations are available for people seeking clearer goals or a stronger sense of life purpose.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Alexia commonly blends client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s experience so they feel heard and supported; it helps with motivation and when someone needs a steady space to talk. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Alexia will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. She adjusts methods over time so the plan fits the client’s needs and life circumstances.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or on-camera time is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching-style exchanges, or when someone needs more frequent touchpoints between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
