Online support options
Practical approaches for online care and skill building
Alexandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying thought patterns and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many stress-related concerns. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for handling intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening emotion regulation in daily life.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Alexandra collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She may combine brief skill teaching, motivational interviewing to support change, and mindful practices to help with awareness depending on what proves most helpful.
Online therapy with Alexandra is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can pick what works for their schedule. Video is useful for longer sessions and exercises that benefit from seeing facial cues. Phone works well if bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can fit brief check-ins, homework support, or days when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, and other demands.
