About Alexander
He helps people address stress, anxiety, anger, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. He also works on communication problems, feelings of emptiness, struggles with life purpose, family problems, first responder issues, and post-traumatic stress. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than vague talk.
His approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with existential and solution-focused ideas. That means clients work on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior, while also looking at meaning and immediate, achievable solutions. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events are affecting daily life.
Alexander aims to create a direct, accountable relationship. He invites clients to set measurable goals and checks progress each session. He is comfortable pushing for change while supporting people through difficult emotions.

How these approaches translate to online work
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and often involves homework like tracking thoughts or trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or anger.Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice, and personal responsibility. It helps people who feel empty or stuck by examining values, life direction, and what matters most to them.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and will tailor methods to fit those needs. That conversation is collaborative and may shift as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use tools like worksheets and screen-share exercises during a session to practice skills between meetings.
