Approaches That Guide Online Therapy
Alexandra integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques into her online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and places the client's experience at the center of the work, helping people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and make personal choices. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on strengths and small, achievable steps to create meaningful change and is useful when clients want practical tools to move forward quickly.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alexandra works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time, combining listening, skill-building, and goal-setting to suit each person.
Online sessions are offered by registered professionals and can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around daily life, access support from different locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for the client.
