Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then commit to actions that align with their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns that interfere with meaningful living.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by using practical skills and structured strategies. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, and coping with difficult emotions.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and supports the client’s own capacity for growth. This approach can help people feel heard and empowered to find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alexandra will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. The selection of techniques evolves over time based on what proves most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from different locations within the state, and maintain continuity of support when in-person meetings are not possible.
