About Alexandria

Alexandria Luey-Gomez is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with six years of professional experience offering support for stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, depression, and a broad range of related concerns.

Background and approach

She focuses on creating an affirming, trauma-informed environment where clients' experiences are validated and their personal strengths are emphasized. Her practice emphasizes empathy and collaboration as she helps clients explore patterns tied to abandonment, attachment, codependency, communication problems, and other relational difficulties.

Her therapeutic stance blends warmth with practical skill-building, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, DBT, EMDR, and client-centered work to match interventions to individual needs.

Alexandria aims to help people process emotional wounds from abuse or systemic harms, rebuild self-esteem, and reconnect with their voice and values rather than framing healing as a need to be fixed. She offers services from her North Carolina practice, speaking English and working with clients through several online session formats.

Clients who seek a steady, nonjudgmental ally for navigating life transitions, parenting stress, addiction recovery, or identity-related concerns may find her collaborative style and trauma-informed focus a good fit.

Integrating evidence-based approaches into online care

Alexandria draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values, tolerate difficult emotions, and pursue meaningful action even when painful thoughts or feelings arise. When trauma symptoms are present, elements of EMDR may be incorporated to support processing of distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact.

Finding the most helpful approach is a collaborative process. Alexandria works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors interventions from these approaches rather than relying on a single method. This collaborative planning helps ensure that therapy aligns with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from a licensed professional without the need to travel, and they allow for continued work through life transitions or busy routines while keeping treatment focused and practical.
