About Alfaye
Alfaye Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 17 years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression.
Background and approach
She creates a welcoming space where clients can share thoughts and feelings without judgment and works to build practical, goal-oriented plans that address mood and behavioral concerns. Alfaye emphasizes respect, accountability, and collaboration while helping clients develop coping skills and healthier patterns.
Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and mindfulness strategies, and she also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods when appropriate. Alfaye brings years of community-focused leadership to her clinical work, including founding a nonprofit organization that provides housing, education, and outreach to youth in need.
She aims to be prepared and professional in sessions, honoring clients' time and treating personal material with appropriate care under applicable law. Alfaye describes her style as warm and caring without enabling, pairing empathy with clear expectations to support progress.
Prospective clients are invited to take the first step toward change by completing the initial matching process and scheduling sessions aligned with therapist availability.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood-related difficulties. It often involves practical exercises and skill-building to manage distress and develop healthier routines.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work; this approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore personal goals and make choices that align with their values.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alfaye works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. She aims to tailor sessions so interventions are relevant and achievable while adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other demands by providing options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to attend regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and stay connected with a licensed professional even when in-person visits are difficult. Alfaye integrates her therapeutic methods into these online formats to support continuity of care and practical progress toward client goals.
