About Alexandra
Alexandra 'Alex' Yancey is an LCMHC in North Carolina with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and LGBT concerns, and also attends to dissociation, veteran and armed forces issues, post-traumatic stress, sexual assault and abuse, and women's issues.
Alex works with people who are processing trauma or navigating mood and anxiety symptoms. She uses straightforward conversation, practical skills, and attention to bodily experience to help people manage distress. Sessions aim to identify what is most pressing and to try small, useful steps between meetings.
Her style is person-centered and culturally responsive. That means she starts from each person's values and life context, then adapts methods to fit what actually helps. She names somatic work, cognitive behavioral techniques, reality therapy, and mindfulness as tools she draws on.
In trauma-related work she pays attention to how the body holds stress and to patterns that keep symptoms active. For mood and anxiety concerns she combines cognitive strategies with grounding and short practical exercises to reduce overwhelm. For identity and LGBT-related concerns she focuses on affirmation and exploring values and relationships around identity.
Alex emphasizes collaboration. She and the person she works with decide which techniques to try and when to shift approaches. Getting started involves a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session so practical goals can be set and early steps planned.

How evidence-based approaches are used in remote work
Alex lists somatic work and cognitive approaches among the techniques she uses. Somatic work focuses on how the body stores stress and uses breathing, grounding, and gentle movement to reduce physical tension. Cognitive techniques involve noticing unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing alternative ways of thinking to lower worry and depressive patterns.She describes her overall approach as person-centered and culturally responsive, so finding the right method is collaborative. During early sessions she and the client review goals, try a few techniques, and decide together which approaches to continue or adjust based on what feels helpful.
The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when a full session is impractical, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals commonly adapt exercises, grounding practices, and homework so sessions fit everyday life and the client’s goals.
