About Alexandria
Alexandria Aasen is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, licensed in Nevada and Illinois, with over 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are managing addictions, relationship strain, sleep problems, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, parenting stress, and other life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear planning to move toward goals.
She helps people break down problems into manageable actions. That might mean building routines for better sleep, making a plan to address substance use, or practicing skills to reduce anger and anxiety. Her approach emphasizes concrete interventions rather than abstract discussion alone.
Alexandria commonly supports people coping with grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. She also works with issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, body image, and compulsive behaviors like hoarding. For people handling blended family dynamics, fatherhood issues, or parenting strain, she talks through realistic changes that fit day-to-day life.
Clients with gender identity and LGBT-related concerns, or those involved in BDSM and alternative sex culture, can address identity, boundaries, and relationship impact in sessions. She recognizes when problems involve co-occurring conditions and will plan steps that attend to multiple needs at once.
Her practical style includes making a clear plan, tracking progress, and adjusting tactics when needed. The focus stays on measurable steps and on skills people can use between sessions to reduce stress and reach the changes they want.
How sessions work
How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions
Alexandria uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is behavioral work, which looks at routines and habits and replaces unhelpful actions with small, testable steps. This helps with sleep problems, anxiety, and patterns that maintain depression.Another frequent element is skills-focused coaching. That involves learning concrete skills for emotion regulation, communication, or managing cravings, and then practicing those skills between sessions. It is useful for anger, addiction management, relationship stress, and parenting strain.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about what feels most useful, try methods together, and adjust based on what helps. Clients are invited to set goals and to check progress regularly so tactics can change when needed.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. If you need shorter check-ins, quieter settings, or sessions that better slot into a lunch break, online options can make that easier. Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available formats before booking to ensure they match your schedule and needs.
