About Alexandra
Alexandra Boehm is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with three years of clinical practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationship or family concerns. She also supports those managing career shifts, intimacy-related issues, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Alex uses clear, straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that keep problems going. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits and testing small changes. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness methods to structure practical steps that clients can try between visits.
Her background includes inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, where she worked with people experiencing mood disorders, infertility-related stress, and family conflict. That experience informs how she balances short-term coping skills with longer conversations about underlying patterns.
In sessions she emphasizes listening first, then working together on specific skills and experiments. Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy appear in her work when people want to clarify values or rewrite recurring stories about themselves. The approach is conversational and goal-focused rather than purely academic.
People seeking help with anger, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, end-of-life issues, or feelings of isolation may find her practical style useful. Alexandra explains options, offers concrete exercises, and checks progress over time. To begin, she asks about the immediate problem and current routines before suggesting next steps.
How Alexandra blends structured approaches in online work
Alexandra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems. CBT here means setting clear goals, tracking thoughts, and trying small behavioral experiments to test new responses. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related patterns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and building a working relationship. That approach is about reflecting what someone says and helping them outline priorities. Mindfulness Therapy is another element she brings in to teach attention skills and simple breathing or grounding practices that calm reactivity in the moment.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Alexandra will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend which approaches to emphasize. She treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts plans based on what helps in practice.
