About Alfaye
Alfaye Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 17 years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. Alfaye also focuses on issues such as attachment concerns, codependency, family problems, and multicultural matters.
She begins sessions by listening to what matters most and by creating a respectful, nonjudgmental setting for people to speak about their thoughts and feelings. Sessions aim to identify goals and practical steps clients can take between appointments. Alfaye describes her approach as active and accountable rather than enabling; she helps clients practice new responses and set clearer boundaries.
Her work has included founding and running a nonprofit, H.O.P.E. Inc., which provides housing, education, and training to youth in need. That community experience gives her practical perspective on coordinating services and addressing life challenges beyond talk therapy. She also cites a long personal faith commitment as central to her life and work.
In session she typically uses Client-Centered techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused methods. Those tools are used to track progress, reframe unhelpful thinking, and build skills for everyday stressors and relationship patterns.
Alfaye asks people to take the first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Payment is handled via a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and reflecting what the client says. It helps people feel heard while they sort through thoughts, values, and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thinking and behavior into manageable steps. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful responses to stress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify what methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT techniques for a period, then adding mindfulness or motivational interviewing to support change.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or let someone avoid being on camera when that helps them engage. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and tracking tools to an online setting so progress continues between appointments.
