About Alexander
Alexander Haney is a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Specialist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, addictions, and codependency. He also supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns, trauma, grief, intimacy struggles, and problems like hoarding or obsessive behaviors. Alexander writes plainly and invites people who are willing to work toward change.
He uses practical, evidence-informed methods that focus on goals and real-life steps. Sessions emphasize clear skills and small experiments you can try between meetings. He frames therapy as a course of treatment rather than a single session, so consistency and commitment matter.
Alexander has six years of experience helping people tackle panic, social anxiety, bipolar mood swings, and anger issues. He also offers coaching-style work for career questions and life purpose. Many clients come for help with codependency, infidelity fallout, isolation, and rebuilding intimacy.
His approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Motivational Interviewing and relationship work informed by the Gottman Method. That mix lets him match methods to your goals, whether you need practical behavior change, values-based planning, or focused conversations about connection.
Alexander works in Tennessee and conducts sessions in English. He aims to help people gain clearer self-understanding and more steady footing so they can move toward a life they value.
How his approaches translate to online work
Alexander commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with manageable behavior changes to reduce anxiety, panic, or compulsive patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy centers on clarifying personal values and taking small steps that move you toward those values while accepting difficult feelings that come up.He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change and to build momentum when motivation is low. Together these approaches help with mood disorders, codependency patterns, obsessions and compulsions, and relationship concerns by combining skills practice with values-based direction.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alexander will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are set by the practice. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so more consistent progress can be made.
