    About Alexander

    Alexander Haney is a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Specialist (LPC, LPC-MHSP) based in Tennessee. He works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, mood disorders, addictions, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues like codependency or hoarding. He also supports those struggling with panic, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and feelings of isolation or life-purpose questions.

    Alexander uses straightforward, goal-focused therapy. He commonly draws on Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the Gottman Method to help people clarify goals and take steps toward them. Sessions tend to focus on practical skills, small experiments, and building habits that fit daily life.

    He brings six years of professional experience and describes therapy as an active process. He invites people who are new to therapy and those ready to work toward change. Alexander emphasizes that progress usually comes from repeated effort rather than a single session.

    He offers both shorter-term problem-focused work and longer-term support depending on a person’s needs. Some people meet frequently while they work on immediate challenges, then reduce frequency as goals are reached. Others continue regular sessions to support ongoing growth.

    Alexander aims to help clients leave therapy with a clearer sense of who they are, what they need, and practical steps to build a more balanced life. He frames his role as a guide alongside the client’s own efforts.

  2. How his approaches work for online therapy

    Alexander commonly uses Motivational Interviewing to help people resolve mixed feelings and find their own reasons for change. This approach focuses on listening, asking targeted questions, and supporting a person’s own motivation to take steps forward.

    He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice tough thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another frequent approach; it focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression.

    Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on how things are going.

    The original profile did not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow short check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adapt exercises and behavioral experiments so people can practice skills between sessions and bring real-life progress back into appointments.
