About Alexandria
Alexandria Aasen is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Nevada with over ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical steps people can take to manage hard problems like addiction, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Alexandria speaks plainly and helps people break large goals into small, doable actions.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address issues such as relationship struggles, sleep problems, grief, and motivation. Alexandria also works with people facing trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, eating struggles, and career stress. Codependency and attachment concerns are part of her additional focus areas.
Clients can expect goal-focused planning that emphasizes steady progress. Alexandria outlines clear steps, helps set realistic milestones, and adjusts plans as needs change. She frames change as effortful but achievable, using interventions that aim to reduce delays and increase day-to-day functioning.
Her background includes practice in both Illinois and Nevada and a decade of work with diverse clinical challenges. Alexandria pays attention to co-occurring issues such as substance use and mood instability so treatment is practical and connected to real-life demands.
She encourages people to view asking for help as a strong step. Sessions typically involve talking through current struggles, identifying small experiments to try between meetings, and tracking what works so clients can move toward their goals.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Many clinicians use evidence-based approaches that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors and on improving relationships. Cognitive approaches help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and depression. Behavioral strategies target routines and habits, such as sleep or substance use, by introducing small experiments and tracking results over time.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. From there she will collaborate with the client to try methods that feel like a good fit and adjust as progress is tracked.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone continue steady work on goals without changing their daily routine, while still using the same evidence-based techniques they would use in person.
