About Alexa

Alexa Sorensen is a Michigan-licensed therapist and an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) with 13 years of professional experience. She practices with a person-first, empathetic style and adapts conversation and therapeutic methods to meet each individual's unique needs. Alexa emphasizes respect and sensitivity while supporting people through relationship concerns, LGBTQ+ and gender-related matters including non-monogamy, and transitions such as grief and loss, stress and anxiety, career shifts, and other life changes.

Her work includes elements of coaching and practical skill-building, and she brings experience addressing intimacy, parenting, trauma and abuse, mood and attention concerns, and compassion fatigue. Alexa draws on a range of clinical approaches to fit a client’s goals, preferences, and circumstances, tailoring interventions rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. She recognizes that beginning therapy can take courage and affirms that first step while offering steady, collaborative support. Alexa invites conversations about how she can best assist someone in moving toward clearer priorities, greater coping capacity, and improved relationships.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and challenges tied to life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and safety in relationships, helping people explore how early bonds influence current intimacy, trust, and boundaries. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, nonjudgmental listening, and the client’s own strengths, creating a supportive space for personal growth and decision making.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alexa works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what matters most to the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals from different locations. For many people, virtual sessions provide a practical, effective way to engage in meaningful therapeutic work without sacrificing consistency or convenience.
