About Alexander Gordon
With a foundation in developmental psychology, he practices from a client-centered perspective, creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. In initial sessions he emphasizes careful listening to build a rounded understanding of each person's life story, then collaborates with clients to set focused, achievable goals for therapy.
As an integrated psychotherapist he blends techniques from cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, Gestalt, and mindfulness-based models, tailoring interventions to match each client's situation and strengths. He adapts his approach based on what emerges in therapy so methods fit the person rather than forcing a single model. Alexander frames therapy as a collaborative process and uses clinical tools selectively to address the issues a client brings to therapy.

Approaches Used in Online Therapy and What They Do
Alexander Gordon uses several evidence-informed approaches adapted for online work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of connection and trust formed in relationships; it helps people understand how early relationship patterns influence current attachment, intimacy, and caregiving concerns.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, empathic stance that helps clients explore emotions and personal values at their own pace; it is useful for building self-esteem, processing life changes, and clarifying goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it effective for anxiety, depression, and many everyday coping challenges.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alexander works collaboratively with clients and other licensed professionals to determine which methods best match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.
Online sessions - via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - provide flexibility for scheduling and allow therapy to fit into busy lives. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access shorter check-ins when helpful, and participate from locations that are convenient for the client.
