About Alejandra
Alejandra Mejia is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 13 years of experience to her work. Her approach is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at learning small changes that add up over time.
Alejandra listens with respect and warmth. She focuses on what matters most to each person and builds a plan around those priorities.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to the client rather than using one fixed method for everyone. In sessions she uses a mix of approaches to match the need. That can mean working on thoughts and behaviors, practicing emotional skills, or exploring core values and attachment patterns.
The goal is to help clients manage symptoms and make clearer choices about relationships, work, and daily life. She also supports people dealing with parenting stress, intimacy problems, career strain, and life changes like divorce or caregiving challenges. Issues such as eating concerns, substance problems, and compassion fatigue are within her focus areas as well.
Alejandra aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about hard things. She helps clients set realistic goals and practice skills between sessions. For many, that combination brings steadier moods, clearer communication, and more confidence in handling challenges.
Approach-focused care for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and then act in ways that match those values. It is useful when life feels stuck or when anxiety and avoidance get in the way of things you care about. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps. Emotionally-Focused Therapy attends to how people experience and respond to emotions in relationships and can be helpful for improving communication and closeness.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that suit your needs. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as you learn what helps most.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation for skills practice, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports short check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
