About Alexandra
Alexandra Boehm is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with three years of clinical experience. She completed her MSW at Saginaw Valley State University in 2019 and has worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. Alexandra focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship and family issues, infertility-related stress, and trauma.
Alexandra uses a person-centered approach that keeps the client's perspective central. She listens first and aims to give a clear, outside viewpoint on problems that feel stuck. Conversations in sessions are meant to surface the difficulties you carry and to sort out practical next steps.
In session she draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and test unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses narrative techniques to help people tell their story differently and mindfulness practices to calm distressing feelings. Motivational interviewing may be used to clarify goals and strengthen the desire to make changes.
Her background includes working with people in crisis and those navigating ongoing life transitions. She has experience with caregiving stress, grief and end-of-life concerns, blended family issues, infertility, and compassion fatigue among other areas.
Alexandra approaches appointments with straightforward, nonjudgmental conversation. She offers a place to talk through what is happening at home, at work, or inside your head, and to build small, usable steps forward. If you want to learn more about her process, the next step is a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Alexandra often combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people sort through what's causing them distress and to try small, practical changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can name their concerns and priorities. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers simple experiments to test unhelpful beliefs.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help reduce reactivity and ground attention in the present moment. Mindfulness practices can be short and concrete, and are useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with strong emotions that come up at home or work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will talk about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. From that discussion they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time in a collaborative way.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a busy schedule and keeping therapy consistent during life changes. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to attend during a lunch break, avoid travel time, or choose shorter check-ins when needed.
