Alexandria Palmer is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and trauma. She also supports those working on self-esteem, body image, and coping with life changes. Her approach is down-to-earth and aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
She uses a person-centered stance that starts with listening. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. Clients often work on building self-compassion, improving communication, and easing social anxiety through clear, manageable steps.
Alexandria draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and shift behavior. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Motivational Interviewing helps when people feel stuck or uncertain about change.
In session, she aims to make goals concrete. That might mean practicing a short skill, trying a new way to talk about a problem, or setting small experiments to test different choices. The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs.
With four years of clinical experience and an Alaska LPC credential, she brings steady support for common and complex concerns. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking to ensure they meet practical needs.
How certain approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the person’s experience back so they feel understood. It helps people who need a safe space to sort out feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions; it can help when emotions feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That might mean blending parts of these approaches or trying a short goal-focused experiment to see what works best.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allowing people to meet without travel and to maintain continuity when schedules change. It also lets clients practice new skills between sessions and check in more readily when progress stalls. Licensed professionals tailor sessions so they match what a person can realistically do between meetings.
