About Alexandra
Alexandra Spartels is a counsellor with 11 years of professional experience in Australia. She helps people dealing with relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, stress and anxiety. She also supports people facing intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, career shifts and depression.
Alexandra aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about honestly. She encourages small steps and practical moves people can try between sessions.
Background and approach
The first appointment focuses on what matters most to the person and on simple, clear goals. Her approach draws on Jungian therapy alongside practical methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. She may also use EMDR for trauma work and elements of the Gottman Method for relationship concerns.
Sessions centre on understanding patterns, naming difficult emotions, and building concrete coping skills. Clients can expect a conversational style that balances reflection with action. Alexandra listens for family-of-origin patterns, dissociation or traits such as avoidant behaviours and codependency.
She works at a pace set by the client and adapts tools to everyday life. Alexandra holds PACFA credentialing, which she uses to guide professional practice in Australia. She speaks English and offers sessions by phone, video, live chat or text messaging.
If someone is ready to start, the usual next step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online delivery
Alexandra blends Jungian therapy with evidence-informed methods to address emotional and relational pain. Jungian therapy focuses on exploring personal symbols, life themes and hidden patterns to help people make sense of repeated problems and feel more integrated. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills for living with difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward meaningful action. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift core emotions in relationship situations to improve connection and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alexandra works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. Together they review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan if something isn’t working so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or busy schedules while maintaining regular contact with an appropriately qualified therapist.
