About Alexandra

Alexandra Mason-Ceaser is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and parenting challenges. She uses clear, practical tools to address relationship problems, grief, addictions, and self-esteem struggles. Alexandra draws on experience with LGBT clients, trauma and abuse, and ADHD when relevant to a person's goals.

She trained at The University of Illinois at Chicago and holds the clinical social work credentials LCSW and CSW.

Background and approach

Alexandra brings eight years of professional experience in social work settings. Her work often includes straightforward psychoeducation, teaching skills such as anger management, parenting strategies, and communication techniques. In sessions she mixes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness and client-centered methods.

That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new coping skills, and set goals that feel doable. Motivational Interviewing also features when someone needs help finding their own reasons to change. Her style is collaborative and practical.

She explains ideas plainly and focuses on steps clients can try between sessions. If she doesn’t have an answer right away, she will research and bring information back to the work. People can expect a calm, focused approach that balances skill-building with open conversation.

Alexandra aims to build a working relationship that supports gradual progress toward clearer communication, better coping, and more manageable day-to-day life.

Approach and online therapy options

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities. The therapist creates space for clients to name their goals while following their lead, which helps when someone needs a supportive, nonjudgmental conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors, which often helps with anxiety, mood problems, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for handling intense emotions and improving emotional regulation. It is useful for managing anger, impulsive reactions, and strong interpersonal stress. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable, and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and preferences become clearer. Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, to check in between meetings, and to choose the format that feels most accessible for ongoing support.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
