About Alexandra

Alexandra Boehm is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with three years of clinical practice. She has worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings since graduating with a Master of Social Work in 2019. Her work has included supporting people with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship concerns, infertility, and family-related issues.

Alex focuses on helping people talk through current problems and the ways past family patterns still affect daily life. She uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels stuck and to map small, practical steps forward. Sessions are centered on the person in front of her rather than on a fixed agenda.

Her approach draws on client-centered work combined with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. She also uses narrative methods to help people reframe difficult stories from their past. Motivational interviewing is part of how she supports change when someone feels unsure about next steps.

Alex is comfortable addressing family of origin issues, attachment concerns, grief, stress, and relationship struggles among other areas. She pays attention to how roles and expectations from childhood continue to shape behavior and choices in adulthood. Conversations often move between understanding patterns and practicing concrete skills to handle them differently.

People who want clear, practical conversation about how early family experiences shape present life may find this approach useful. She works in plain language and aims to offer a steady, collaborative presence while unpacking whatever brought someone to therapy.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-centered therapy starts by placing the person's concerns at the center of the session. The therapist listens without pushing an agenda and helps the person name what matters most and what feels difficult right now. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it offers practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness in everyday moments.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences together and adjust approaches as the relationship develops. That means sessions can shift between talking, practicing skills, and reworking personal narratives based on what helps most.

Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Many people find that remote sessions allow them to maintain momentum between appointments while building practical skills and insight.
