About Alexandria

Alexandria Luey-Gomez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on helping people navigate addiction, trauma, and overwhelming stress. She brings six years of clinical experience and aims to make therapy feel approachable and direct. Her work centers on listening closely, validating what clients have been through, and helping them find steps forward.

She offers a calm, warm presence and a collaborative style. Sessions are trauma-informed and aim to reduce shame and self-blame. She helps people name what happened, understand how it affects daily life, and practice new ways to cope.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. She may use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness and acceptance strategies can help with anxiety and urges related to substance use.

For people healing from abuse, discrimination, or long-term stress, she focuses on rebuilding safety, self-compassion, and practical routines. Work can include grounding skills, emotion regulation strategies, and steps to manage cravings or triggers.

Sessions are collaborative; goals come from the person sitting in the room. She emphasizes steady support, consistency, and helping people reconnect with their strengths. If someone wants a therapist who listens without judgment and helps plan concrete next steps, she may be a good fit.

How selected approaches support online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life, which can help with addiction, anxiety, and coping with change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It is practical and skill-based, often teaching straightforward tools for anxiety, depression, and managing urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions typically mix talking, skill practice, and planning so the therapeutic plan reflects what matters to the client.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session formats before booking since they are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, and maintain consistency. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins or phone sessions when bandwidth or schedules make that useful. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and what to expect so therapy fits into daily life rather than disrupting it.
