About Alexandra
Alexandra Garrison is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) licensed in Florida with 11 years of experience helping adults who face addiction, relationship stress, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She works with adults and focuses on practical steps people can use to manage day-to-day struggles. Sessions center on what the client wants to address first.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to identify patterns that keep problems repeating. In sessions she listens to how a person describes their situation, reflects what she hears, and offers challenges when those patterns seem unhelpful. That approach is aimed at making problematic habits clearer and more manageable.
Clients can expect a conversational, client-led style. The counselor helps people set goals and then works through small, concrete steps toward them. Therapy can include looking at how control issues show up in relationships, work, and personal choices.
Her background includes a decade-plus of clinical practice with adults facing addiction and co-occurring concerns such as trauma and family difficulties. That experience informs how she structures sessions and how she discusses coping strategies with clients.
People seeking help for anger, low self-worth, or major life transitions will find an approach focused on clear patterns and practical changes. Those who prefer to guide the topics in each session will find the sessions follow the client’s priorities.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Alexandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach involves identifying repeating behaviors and patterns that fuel addiction or anger, then breaking those patterns into small, manageable steps. This helps people see what to change and try different responses in daily life. A second approach focuses on building coping skills for life changes and low self-esteem. That can include rehearsing new ways of responding, setting short goals, and practicing skills between appointments so progress shows up outside sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work and is meant to be collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust methods as those needs change. Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it easier to continue regular sessions during life disruptions, while the therapist and client test which approaches produce useful changes in everyday routines.Sheet 3
