About Alejandro
Alejandro Holguin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California. He has 13 years of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and sleep difficulties. Alejandro meets clients where they are and focuses on practical steps that fit into daily life.
Alejandro listens for the story behind the symptoms. He helps people name emotions, notice unhelpful patterns, and try small changes that add up. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's comfort level.
His background includes work with mood disorders, attachment concerns, panic, and struggles with self-worth, guilt, and shame. He also provides targeted support for fathers dealing with parenting, identity, and connection challenges.
Clinically, he draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy among others. The focus is on clear tools and steady progress rather than jargon or one-size-fits-all plans.
Alejandro emphasizes practical strategies for sleep and rest when those issues come up, alongside coping skills for grief, addiction, and trauma-related concerns. People who want straightforward guidance and steady support tend to do well with his style.
To begin, he asks people to identify goals and tries techniques that can be used between sessions. The aim is improved daily functioning, healthier relationships, and better rest over time.
How Alejandro’s approaches translate to online work
Alejandro uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT can help with anxiety, avoidance, and building routines that support better sleep.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments. CBT offers concrete steps for addressing panic, low mood, and sleep-disrupting habits.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. This approach can help with attachment issues, intimacy struggles, and improving connection with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alejandro will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. He treats therapy as a collaboration where tools are adjusted over time.
The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling, the ability to fit sessions into a busy day, and fewer travel demands.
