About Alfaye

Alfaye Jackson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 17 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. Alfaye aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can share thoughts and feelings and begin to make changes.

Her approach is warm and caring while remaining focused on progress. She uses practical tools like cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas are used when clients want clear, achievable steps toward change.

Alfaye emphasizes respect and accountability in sessions. She works with each person to set goals and build individualized plans for moving forward. She also describes herself as someone whose faith and community work inform her commitment to service and outreach.

Outside clinical work, Alfaye is the founder and CEO of a nonprofit called H.O.P.E. Inc., which provides housing, education, and training for homeless and at-risk youth and offers outreach ministry. That long-term community work shapes how she thinks about hope and practical support.

People who choose to work with Alfaye can expect straightforward conversations, goal setting, and follow-through. She recognizes the courage it takes to start therapy and invites clients to take one step at a time toward better daily functioning and greater stability.

How Alfaye’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's unique experience. It helps people feel heard and gradually build confidence to make changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to test and change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Alfaye will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals and daily life. She uses client feedback to adjust focus, blending strategies such as CBT, mindfulness, and motivational techniques as needed.

The therapist's profile does not list specific online session formats. Confirm the available formats before booking to know how sessions are conducted. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats may also be preferable when lower bandwidth or no video is required. Ask about current session options when you sign up so you can pick what fits your routine.
