About Alexandria

Alexandria Lara is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She blends practical therapy methods with a respectful, person-focused style. Alexandria aims to help people regain confidence, manage difficult feelings, and find clearer direction in life.

She adapts therapy to each person's needs rather than using a single fixed model. Sessions often focus on understanding how thoughts and feelings affect daily choices. She also uses mindfulness and motivational techniques to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors.

Alexandria has worked across inpatient and outpatient settings. That experience includes in-person and telehealth sessions and running group counseling that covers self-esteem, goal-setting, trauma, acculturation, and adjustment. Those settings shaped a practical approach to common concerns like stress, anxiety, and depression.

Clients bring many types of struggles, including relationship strain, family problems, grief, anger, and issues around body image and eating. Alexandria also supports people coping with attachment concerns, abandonment feelings, codependency, and isolation. She aims to meet each person where they are and build on strengths they already have.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She helps people set realistic goals and tries techniques that fit everyday life. To begin, Alexandria asks a few questions to match on goals and then schedules sessions based on availability.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working at the client’s pace. The therapist follows each person’s lead, reflects what they share, and helps them find their own solutions to stress, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and impulse issues.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and express key emotions that drive relationship patterns and attachment concerns. It aims to make emotional patterns clearer so people can try different ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that seem to fit. Adjustments are made as needed to keep progress moving.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, like taking a session during a work break or avoiding travel time. Telehealth can also allow a quieter check-in when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter conversation is needed. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered and which best match your routine.
