About Alexandra
Alexandra Herzog helps people who are feeling stuck by offering steady, practical support. She focuses on clear steps people can take to feel more confident and calm. Alexandra speaks English and German and brings 15 years of clinical experience to conversations about stress, anxiety and life change.
She uses straightforward talking and listening to build understanding. Sessions aim to clarify what matters, spot unhelpful patterns, and try small changes that add up.
How Alexandra works
Her style is warm and direct, starting with what the person wants to change and then shaping a simple plan. Alexandra combines several therapy approaches to suit each person's needs. She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people live by their values, cognitive tools to shift thought patterns, and attachment-informed insights to improve emotional connection.
Those methods are woven together to support issues like self-esteem, grief, sleep problems and career stress. She also pays attention to relationship and family dynamics when they affect wellbeing. People turn to her for support with intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, blended family stress, separation, and caregiving strain.
Conversations may include practical communication skills and ways to manage strong emotions. Alexandra is PACFA accredited, which reflects her standing with a recognised professional body. She works with clients in Australia via online formats and offers sessions that fit different routines and preferences.

Online support options
How Alexandra’s approaches translate online
Alexandra commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-informed approaches when working with clients. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and then take actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, life transitions and low motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current emotional responses and helps people build more supported ways of relating and feeling safe in close connections.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Alexandra collaborates with each person to identify what fits their goals and preferences, and adapts methods as therapy progresses. That means sessions can begin with one focus and shift if different tools would help more over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps with emotional connection. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when a discreet check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, coaching-style guidance or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while still receiving care from appropriately qualified therapists.
