About Alexandria

Alexandria Luey-Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of practice. She offers an affirming, person-focused approach that centers a client's experience. Alexandria emphasizes listening first and then working together to figure out what helps most.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name what hurt them. That includes trauma, emotional abuse, and stress tied to discrimination or systemic harms. Alexandria aims to help people reconnect with their strength and voice rather than telling them they need to be fixed.

Her work blends practical skills with trauma-aware support. She uses techniques that help with managing overwhelming feelings, reducing anxiety, and coping with big life changes. Sessions often include ways to notice thoughts, practice grounding, and try small behavior changes that feel doable.

Alexandria commonly supports people facing grief, relationship strain, substance concerns, and struggles with anger or mood. She also focuses on attachment and abandonment wounds, caregiver stress, codependency, and challenges that come from blended family situations.

She draws from several therapy methods to match each persons needs, including approaches that help process traumatic memories when appropriate. Her style is warm, steady, and collaborative. Clients who want a compassionate listener and practical tools for everyday life often find this approach helpful.

How certain approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice which thoughts matter and which ones can be let go. It focuses on values and small steps toward a meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors that reduce distress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to process traumatic memories; it can support people who are carrying strong reactions from past events.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and comfort with different methods. Together they decide which approaches to try and adjust the plan as work progresses.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use tools like worksheets, guided skills practice, and between-session exercises more easily. Licensed professionals will help match scheduling and approach to each person's routine and goals.
