About Alexandria

Alexandria Aasen is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with more than 10 years of clinical experience. She practices in Nevada and holds licensure in both Nevada and Illinois. Alexandria focuses on practical, goal-oriented work and talks plainly about steps clients can take toward change.

She helps people cope with addictions, depression, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and motivation struggles. She also addresses relationship difficulties, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and stress.

Background and approach

Her work includes support for LGBT issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career challenges. Sessions emphasize making a clear plan and using targeted strategies to reduce delays toward goals. Alexandria describes clients who seek help as resilient and builds treatment around incremental progress.

She aims for straightforward, doable interventions rather than long lists of theory. Her practice also covers trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, eating issues, and a range of related concerns such as codependency, substance problems, and body image. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and blended family matters.

Alexandria’s licensure details are NV LCPC CP0141 and IL LCPC 180.009811. She offers sessions in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Clear approaches for online counseling and practical change

Evidence-based techniques focus the work so sessions are concrete and actionable. Cognitive-behavioral based work helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and low motivation. Behavioral activation and planning break larger goals into small steps so clients build momentum and feel less overwhelmed when coping with life changes or mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt methods that match goals, preferences, and the issue at hand. That means checking in and adjusting plans over time rather than sticking to a single method from the start.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or life changes occur, and use short check-ins alongside longer sessions. Licensed professionals can use these options to deliver focused, practical care that fits a client’s life.
