About Alexander
Alexander Guzman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in New York with 20 years of professional experience. He works with people who face stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, career pressures, and major life changes. He also focuses on concerns such as attachment, body image, communication problems, and issues around fatherhood and family relationships.
Alexander uses a client-centered approach that treats the person as the expert on their own life. Sessions emphasize clear listening, practical questions, and exploring what matters most to the client. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or need help finding momentum toward a goal.
He draws on existential ideas to address questions of meaning and direction, and Jungian themes to examine patterns that repeat across a life. The Gottman Method appears in work around communication and relational habits. These methods are used to address concrete problems like career decision-making or coping with separation.
In a typical session he focuses on day-to-day problems and realistic steps forward. He talks through strategies for stress management, approaches to improving confidence, and ways to handle difficult conversations. Clients can expect straightforward dialogue about goals and next steps.
Alexander encourages people to try a first session and see how the fit feels. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the site. The subscription for sessions can be canceled at any time.
BHow sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions use that same approach by prioritizing clear questions and practical problem-solving for stress, motivation, and self-esteem. Motivational interviewing is about finding a person’s reasons to change and building small steps; it works well in sessions that track progress and set short-term goals.Existential therapy helps people tackle questions of meaning, direction, and life choices. In online meetings this can mean structured conversations about values, work, and purpose so clients can make clearer decisions in daily life. Alexander will collaborate with each client to decide which approaches make the most sense based on goals and preferences rather than starting with a fixed method.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy lives. It can allow shorter check-ins, avoid commute time, and support follow-up conversations between in-person commitments. Talk with Alexander during the initial questionnaire and first appointment to clarify which session arrangements will work best for your situation.
