About Alexcia

Alexcia Massey is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She brings focused, hands-on support for parents and individuals managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and parenting challenges. Alexcia offers practical steps rather than long lectures, and she adapts sessions to what feels most useful in the moment.

She has three years of formal experience as an LPC and previously earned an Education Specialist degree in School Counseling. She has worked with children, adolescents, and young people in both school and independent practice settings.

Background and approach

That background informs how she talks with families and young adults about common struggles. Her sessions are warm and interactive. She uses clear tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build better coping skills.

Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are also part of her toolbox for practical problem solving. In meetings with clients she tends to set straightforward goals and try small experiments between sessions. Conversations focus on skills you can use at home and in daily life, like managing impulsivity, improving communication, and handling parenting stress.

The pace and plan are adjusted to fit each person's needs. Alexcia works in English and offers online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Her approach is collaborative - she helps people figure out what will work best for their situation and makes changes as needed.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice and change thought patterns that feed anxiety or depression. It breaks problems into clearer parts and teaches practical skills to test new ways of reacting. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, blends acceptance and change and is useful for managing strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship tensions. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve calmness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try techniques that fit your needs. Sessions often start with a few concrete goals and adjust based on what helps most, so you and the therapist decide the pace and tools collaboratively.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options let people fit sessions into busy family schedules, check in between meetings, or choose the format that feels safest and most practical. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, set homework, and follow progress without everyone needing to travel to an office.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
