Helping people manage stress and relationships
About Alejandro
Alejandro "Alex" Bianchi di Carcano helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and parenting challenges. He is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Virginia.
Background and approach
Alex uses a straightforward, strengths-based approach to help people move through hard times. He keeps sessions focused and practical.
People can expect clear goals, steady pacing, and help noticing what already works in their lives. Alex treats issues like depression, grief, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar struggles, and life transitions in ways that fit each person’s situation.
His work also addresses family-related pressures such as adoption and foster care concerns, attachment wounds, blended family dynamics, fatherhood issues, and caregiver stress. He supports people coping with domestic violence aftermath, separation and divorce, and patterns like codependency or control struggles.
With seven years of professional experience, Alex aims to create a calm, direct space for problem solving. He listens for practical obstacles and offers steps clients can try between sessions.
Sessions can include short coaching-style work when that matches a client's goals. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules sessions based on the therapist’s availability.
How approaches and online sessions work together
Alex draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach centers on identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviors, then testing small changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms; this helps with stress, low mood, and coping during life transitions. Another approach emphasizes strengthening attachment and communication patterns so people can repair relationship hurts and improve parenting or blended family dynamics.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to set goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what fits the client’s needs and preferences. Sessions may include short coaching tasks, problem-solving, and homework to support progress between meetings.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide flexibility for brief updates or ongoing support between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or caregiving schedules.
