About Alexandra

Alexandra Brink is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings hope and practical help to people feeling overwhelmed. She emphasizes a warm, person-centered style and believes connection matters most in therapy. Alexandra aims to be a steady, understanding presence while clients work through worry, grief, parenting challenges, or life changes.

She earned a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Therapy and has about ten years of clinical experience. Early in her career she worked with children who had mood, behavior, or developmental concerns, and more recently she has focused on supporting adults with anxiety and related issues. She uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method.

In sessions she often combines person-centered listening with solution-focused work. She also uses behavior-oriented techniques for parenting skills and draws on mindfulness when helpful. Alexandra describes her style as holistic, looking at body, mind, and spiritual concerns as part of recovery.

She also has experience addressing caregiver stress, family of origin issues, forgiveness, and life purpose. Autism, Asperger syndrome, and intellectual disability are listed among areas she focuses on, and she has worked with related family and caregiving challenges. She understands how chronic illness, grief, and major life changes affect day-to-day functioning.

Outside of practice she spends much of her time raising three children and painting when she can. Alexandra hopes to be a steady support while clients build coping skills, reduce anxiety, manage parenting demands, and regain a sense of direction.

Step 3

How different approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs acceptance, emotional support, and a place to make sense of hard feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses small, practical steps to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for panic, social anxiety, and low mood.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve coping with stress. Short, guided practices and gentle attention to the body can calm racing thoughts and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which approaches to try based on goals, symptoms, and personal preferences. That means trying what feels most useful and adjusting as needed.

Session options are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices to work well in remote sessions so progress continues even when schedules are tight.
