Getting to know Alexandra Olson

As a friendly and warm therapist, I am dedicated to providing a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their feelings, challenges, and growth. I take a client-centered, strength-based approach, working collaboratively with individuals to help them tap into their inner resilience and achieve their personal goals. Additionally, I specialize in supporting families navigating the emotional and practical realities of caring for a child with complex medical needs. I work with parents and siblings coping with medical trauma, chronic illness, hospitalizations, and anticipatory grief.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, peer challenges, stress, and family conflict. My therapeutic approach integrates person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques to help clients build practical skills, gain insight, and cultivate a greater sense of peace and well-being.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs. We typically begin with a brief consultation to determine whether we’re a good fit and to answer any questions you may have. Our first full session is an intake, where we’ll explore your background, current concerns, goals for therapy, and what has or hasn’t worked for you in the past. From there, ongoing sessions focus on building insight, developing practical coping skills, processing life’s challenges, and working toward meaningful, lasting change in a supportive, nonjudgmental space.
