Alexandria Lara

Alexandria Lara is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She meets people where they are and helps them address stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and relationship concerns. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, aimed at helping clients regain confidence and move toward their goals.

She adapts counseling methods to each person's needs instead of using one fixed approach. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and building on strengths the client already has. Many people come for help with self-esteem, career pressures, grief, parenting strain, or trauma and abuse recovery.

Her background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings. She has provided counseling to youth and adults in person and through telehealth, and she currently facilitates group counseling that addresses acculturation, adjustment, behavior, goal-setting, self-esteem, self-harm, and trauma. That range of settings informs how she structures individual work.

In sessions she aims to be a guide rather than an authority. Clients can expect to talk through current problems, try new ways of coping, and set manageable goals. She uses approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.

Her approach is practical and people-focused. She encourages clients to notice what already works for them, practice small changes, and build toward longer-term growth. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How Alexandria’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's perspective and uses listening and reflection to help people feel heard and understood. It supports work on self-esteem, relationship stress, and decision-making by centering the client's goals and values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and step-by-step strategies to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful patterns. CBT tools are often straightforward to use between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions in order to change how they respond to stress and relationship strain. This approach can be useful when anger, attachment issues, or grief get in the way of daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels helpful, then partner with them to try approaches that fit. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted over time.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered.
