   About Alexandria

   Alexandria Palmer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Alaska who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and addiction concerns. She also supports clients coping with sleep and eating problems, grief, parenting strain, anger, ADHD, and low self-esteem. Her work includes addressing body image, communication problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

   She uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. Conversations often center on what matters most to the client and practical next steps they can try between meetings. Clients can expect clear goals, reflective listening, and collaborative planning rather than long lectures or abstract theory.

   In her background she has four years of clinical experience working with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, panic, obsessive and compulsive struggles, and self-harm concerns. Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to shape how she engages and offers tools.

   Sessions emphasize building self-compassion, improving communication skills, and developing coping strategies for life changes. She aims to help people notice patterns, try small experiments, and celebrate progress along the way.

   Her practice pays attention to practical skills such as emotional regulation, problem solving, and motivation. Clients leave sessions with concrete steps to practice and clearer ideas about next moves toward improved daily functioning and greater self-understanding.

2. How Motivational and Practical Methods Work Online

   Motivational Interviewing is a conversation style that helps people weigh options and find their own reasons to change. It focuses on listening, asking open questions, and building motivation one small step at a time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-judgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to help them make sense of their experience.
   
   Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on their goals, current challenges, and what feels helpful. That plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear.
   
   Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to an online setting so people can practice skills between visits and track progress in everyday life.
