About Alessandra
Alessandra Baird is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She uses a direct but warm style so clients know what to expect in sessions. Alessandra aims to make therapy clear and practical for busy people.
She draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and reshape emotional patterns in relationships. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for managing mood, worry, and strong emotions.
Background and approach
Other approaches she may include are Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and the Gottman Method when they fit a person’s needs. Alessandra has 14 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings. That background gives her practical ways to address things like trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strain, and blended family challenges.
She also supports people dealing with OCD, postpartum depression, seasonal mood shifts, and multicultural concerns. Her sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. Alessandra listens closely to understand what matters most, then recommends straightforward strategies and skills to try between sessions.
She respects each person's beliefs and does not mix religion with treatment approaches. People working with her can expect empathy paired with clear guidance. She encourages questions and understands that a therapist match matters, so she supports clients in finding the right fit if another approach would serve them better.

Online support
Using emotion-focused and skills-based approaches online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people recognize and shift patterns in how they respond to intense feelings. It can be useful when relationship patterns or strong emotions feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, behaviors, and mood and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and lift low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete tools for managing overwhelming emotions, improving distress tolerance, and building interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then tailor sessions together. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Online therapy offers a range of formats to match different needs. Video calls are useful for deeper conversational work and emotional processing. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or lower bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are good for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into life and to continue therapy while traveling or during schedule changes.
