About Alexandria

Alexandria Palmer is a licensed professional counselor in Alaska who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and relationship strain. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, addictions, and parenting stress. Her work includes attention to self-esteem, body image, impulsivity, and isolation.

Alexandria uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She focuses on building self-compassion and clearer communication. Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through painful memories and current struggles. The tone is collaborative and paced to each persons needs.

In her practice she applies client-centered approaches to keep conversations grounded in the clients experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thoughts and habits that maintain anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used for emotional regulation and coping with intense feelings.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change patterns like compulsive behaviors or substance use. Alexandria guides clients toward practical steps and small, achievable goals. Work often includes problem-solving and experimenting with new routines.

She brings four years of clinical experience as an LPC and draws on evidence-based tools rather than a single fixed method. Sessions emphasize realistic strategies for sleep and daily routines when relevant. People who meet with her can expect steady support while they try new ways of coping and living.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy places the clients experience at the center of each session and focuses on understanding and empathy; online sessions using this approach emphasize listening, validation, and working at the clients pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and involves practical exercises like tracking thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments; CBT works well when people want clear tools to reduce anxiety, improve mood, or reshape habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and enhancing interpersonal effectiveness; it can help when emotions feel overwhelming or impulsive behaviors are a problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. From there she tailors tools and pacing so therapy fits the client's needs and progress remains collaborative.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep regular sessions. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or let someone avoid being on camera if that helps them engage. Licensed professionals adapt the methods above so skills practice and goal-setting remain practical and focused.
