Alexandria "Alex" Tan

Alexandria "Alex" Tan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, and compassion fatigue. She brings seven years of clinical experience to her work and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.

Alex keeps conversations straightforward and grounded. Sessions focus on identifying what feels most urgent, building skills to manage emotions, and creating realistic next steps. She centers the person’s goals and adapts methods to fit each situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her background includes work across community settings supporting people with a wide range of concerns. That experience informs how she approaches issues like caregiver stress, body image struggles, attachment problems, family of origin dynamics, and substance use challenges. Alex often draws on tried-and-true therapy methods to help clients make small, steady changes.

In the room she emphasizes collaboration and concrete tools. People can expect to talk through patterns in relationships, practice coping skills for anxiety and depression, and develop ways to handle burnout or compassion fatigue. The aim is to help clients regain a sense of control and self-worth over time.

Alex speaks English and practices in California. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on her availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that guide online therapy and practical benefits

Alex often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Sessions with CBT usually include setting small experiments, practicing new skills, and reviewing progress over time.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a method that focuses on clarifying personal values and learning ways to act in line with those values even when difficult feelings are present. ACT can be helpful for people dealing with burnout, emptiness, or persistent worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try approaches that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made if something is not helping.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as taking a session during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It also lets people focus on coping skills, relationship patterns, and problem-solving from familiar surroundings. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
