About Alexandria

Dr. Alexandria Arthur brings a decade of clinical experience to her work in Virginia. She holds a doctoral degree in mental health and practices as an LPCC and an LPC. Dr. Arthur focuses on meeting people where they are and helping them take practical steps toward feeling better.

She commonly helps with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. She also supports people coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, and challenges around sleep, eating, or career decisions. Addictions and issues tied to attachment, abandonment, or codependency are also within her scope.

Her approach is collaborative and adaptable. Dr. Arthur uses techniques from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotionally focused methods depending on the person and the problem. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals and strengths.

In sessions she aims to be respectful, sensitive, and compassionate. Conversations and plans are adjusted to fit practical needs and real-life limits. She emphasizes small, achievable steps alongside emotional understanding.

People who appreciate calm, steady guidance and clear strategies for everyday problems often find this style helpful. To begin, the usual step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and emotional responses. It helps people notice patterns in close relationships and practice new ways of connecting and managing strong feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful thinking and building new habits to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which approaches to try first. That choice is revisited as you make progress so treatment stays relevant and useful.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find virtual sessions help keep momentum between appointments while still using the same therapeutic tools they would in person.
