About Alexandria
Alexandria Luey-Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people under long-term stress, trauma, and difficult life changes. She brings six years of practice to each meeting and aims to make therapy feel understandable and doable. Sessions are meant to be a place to be heard and to begin rebuilding strength.
Her work is warm and collaborative. She listens for the effects of trauma, emotional hurt, and discrimination and helps people name what they’ve been through.
Background and approach
She uses clear, practical tools so progress feels steady rather than overwhelming. Alexandria draws on Somatic therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and other approaches to meet each person where they are. That can mean learning ways to calm the body, practicing new thoughts and behaviors, or building skills to cope day to day.
She adapts methods to the concerns someone brings, from anxiety and depression to addiction and grief. She also addresses relationship and family tensions through focused, individual work. Common issues she helps with include attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems, caregiver stress, and difficulties after separation or divorce.
Her goal is to help people develop clearer boundaries and more satisfying interactions. People often come with complicated feelings like guilt, shame, emptiness, or trouble trusting themselves. Alexandria helps them name these patterns and try small, manageable changes.
Her style is steady, compassionate, and practical, aimed at helping people take the next step toward feeling more like themselves.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Somatic work pays attention to how the body holds stress and trauma. Online sessions can guide gentle body awareness and grounding practices that reduce tension and help people feel more present. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions even when feelings are hard. It helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by teaching practical ways to move toward what matters.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan so the methods fit the person, not the other way around.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions remove the need for video while keeping a live conversation. Live chat and text messaging give short-term check-ins and support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum while learning new skills.
