Alexandra Boehm

Alexandra Boehm is a licensed master social worker in Michigan. She uses clear, practical talk to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Alex welcomes honest conversation and focuses on what matters to each person. She trained at Saginaw Valley State University and has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings since 2019. That experience includes supporting people with depression, mood disorders, relationship struggles, infertility concerns, and family issues. Over time she has developed a straightforward style that values listening and real solutions. In sessions she starts by hearing your story and where you are now. She keeps the work client-centered, which means the pace and goals come from you. Together she helps identify small, manageable steps to reduce overwhelm and build coping skills. Alex draws on a mix of approaches when helpful. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to notice unhelpful thinking, narrative techniques to make sense of life events, and mindfulness to slow down intense feelings. Motivational interviewing also guides conversations when clients want to make changes but feel unsure how to start. Her practice covers practical concerns such as caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life counseling, grief, isolation, and compassion fatigue. She aims to create a calm space for honest conversation and to help people find clearer next steps.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following your lead; the therapist creates space to hear your story and helps set goals that fit your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors together to find concrete ways to reduce anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple exercises to notice feelings and calm strong reactions, which can help with grief and stress.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and try different ways of working until something fits. That collaborative process helps make the work practical and personally relevant.

If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care when life changes make in-person visits harder. The therapist will help shape sessions so they fit your schedule and goals.
