About Justin

Justin Alexander is an LPC with 20 years of experience who focuses on practical, skill-based work. He uses clear steps to help people learn new skills, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and take action toward their goals. Justin is based in Texas and works with concerns that include stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, mood struggles, and addiction-related issues.

He blends straightforward conversation with active steps people can try between sessions. Sessions are conducted by video or phone, and he checks messages here a few times a day. Clients schedule a first appointment by selecting times that fit their day and he responds to arrange the meeting.

Justin often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which means looking at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. That approach is useful for worries, panic, low mood, sleep problems, and patterns that get in the way of daily life. He helps people notice unhelpful patterns and practice different ways of responding.

Over two decades he has helped people facing a wide range of concerns including relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, trauma, and challenges linked to substance use. He also supports people dealing with identity questions, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

The work centers on clear goals and small, practical steps. Justin encourages regular check-ins and uses short assignments when they help. To start, clients pick a time that fits their schedule and arrange the first session.

How CBT and practical steps work in online therapy

Justin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot and change the thoughts and routines that keep problems going. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, low mood, sleep issues, and patterns tied to substance use. It focuses on simple, repeatable exercises and small behavior changes that can reduce distress.

The therapeutic work is collaborative. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on the client’s goals, daily demands, and preferences. Sessions include checking progress and adjusting the plan so approaches fit real life and feel manageable.

According to the biography, sessions and check-ins are done by video or phone. Confirm the current session options before booking to make sure they match your needs. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and remove travel time so people can use their usual breaks for a session. Over time the focus is on practical changes that can be practiced between meetings and discussed during appointments.
