Alexandra Ivanovsky, LCSW

Alexandra Ivanovsky is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 23 years of clinical experience supporting people through major life transitions and difficult emotions. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker she brings training in assessment, therapy, and care coordination, and she draws on a wide range of practice settings to inform her work. Alexandra has provided care in outpatient mental health clinics and inpatient settings, substance abuse programs, hospice and palliative care, private practice, and forensic environments, and those varied experiences shape a pragmatic, compassionate approach to therapy.

She tailors techniques to the needs of each person and views the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative partnership aimed at safety and meaningful goals. Her practice focuses on relationship concerns, grief and loss, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes, and she also attends to related challenges that often accompany these issues. Alexandra aims to help clients build coping strategies, restore connection with themselves and others, and navigate transitions with greater clarity and resilience. It would be her privilege to assist those seeking thoughtful, evidence-informed support on their path forward.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Alexandra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues each person brings. One common focus is relationship-centered therapy, which explores patterns of interaction, communication, and attachment to help improve connections and resolve conflicts. This approach is useful for couples work, family concerns, and interpersonal difficulties.

She also employs grief-focused and supportive therapy to help people process loss and adjust to life changes, offering space to integrate emotions and build coping strategies. For mood-related concerns such as bipolar disorder or low self-esteem, Alexandra emphasizes practical skills and behavioral strategies that help stabilize mood and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alexandra works with clients to identify goals, test interventions, and adjust techniques based on what fits their needs, preferences, and circumstances. That partnership helps ensure therapy feels relevant and effective.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy lives. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, continuity during transitions, and multiple ways to engage with a licensed professional, allowing clients to choose the mode that best supports their progress.
