About Alex
Alex Claussen is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with six years of counseling experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and depression. He also works with concerns such as communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation, life purpose, men's issues, money worries, self-love, and social anxiety.
Alex frames the client as the expert on their own life and builds on existing strengths. Sessions are practical and conversational. He uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way.
In a session he helps people name what’s most pressing and sets manageable steps to try between meetings. He talks through coping strategies for anxiety and stress, relapse prevention ideas for addictions, and ways to process grief and loss. He also focuses on rebuilding self-confidence and improving communication skills.
Alex keeps explanations clear and uses everyday language. He supports work on specific problems like money stress or relationship separation as well as broader questions about life purpose and meaning. Work tends to be goal-oriented and paced to the person’s needs.
Clients who prefer a direct, strengths-based approach and simple, practical tools may find his style a fit. To begin, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options before booking.

How his approaches inform online work
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening, reflecting, and following the person's priorities. Online sessions using this approach focus on understanding what matters most to the client and adapting the pace to their needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions CBT can involve identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing new behaviors between meetings, and reviewing homework together to track progress.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Alex will help figure out which methods fit best based on goals, symptoms, and personal preference. The plan can change as needs and priorities shift, and therapy is framed as a collaborative process.
The original biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the current options before booking so you know whether sessions are by video, phone, or another format. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when schedules demand them. They also let people share worksheets, homework, and notes between meetings to support steady progress.
