About Alexandria
Dr. Alexandria Arthur is a licensed professional counselor clinical consultant (LPCC) and a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with 10 years of experience. She holds a doctoral degree in mental health and works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes.
She also addresses issues like addictions, relationships, grief, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping problems, career questions, and codependency. Her practice notes specific focuses including abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, and separation after divorce.
In sessions she uses client-centered methods alongside approaches drawn from attachment work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT). That means conversations are practical and aimed at behavior, feelings, and patterns that repeat in relationships. She adapts the approach to the issues a person brings.
Her style is straightforward and respectful. People can expect conversations that look at how past relationships shape current reactions, how thinking patterns influence mood, and skills for managing strong emotions. Homework and skill practice are used when helpful.
Dr. Arthur asks people to start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions run on a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions. Online sessions look at patterns of closeness and distance, and how those patterns show up in adult relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In an online session this often means identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing different responses between meetings.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the early work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and together they will try approaches that fit those needs. That collaborative planning may shift over time as some techniques prove more useful than others.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people appreciate shorter check-ins when they have limited time, or video sessions when they want face-to-face conversation. Therapists and licensed professionals generally aim to make sessions workable around work, caregiving, and daily life.
