Alexandra BrinkLPC

Alexandra Brink brings a hopeful, person-centered approach to therapy. She believes reaching out is a major step and works alongside clients to find a way forward. Alexandra holds a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Therapy and has been a licensed professional counselor since 2014.

She spent the first part of her career working with children who had mood, behavior, or developmental differences. More recently she has focused on helping adults manage anxiety and related concerns. Her work often blends person-centered listening with solution-focused techniques to help people make practical changes.

Her list of common concerns includes stress, depression, self-esteem, anger, relationship strain, parenting and family problems, and life transitions. She also notes experience with postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, and panic symptoms.

Alexandra works from a collaborative stance. She aims to build a strong therapeutic connection so clients feel heard and understood before moving on to goals and techniques. Outside of work she cares for her three children, paints, and manages a long-term chronic illness experience that informs her empathy for clients facing loss and major life change.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist offers acceptance and reflection so clients feel heard, which helps when handling anxiety or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms like panic or worry. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and bring more calm into daily routines.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Then she tailors a blend of techniques so work in sessions connects to daily life and the client’s priorities.

If you are considering online options, confirm the current session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the original biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that a mix of talking, practical homework, and mindfulness practice transfers well to remote sessions when guided by a licensed professional.
