About Alondra
Alondra Faudoa is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Alondra speaks English and Spanish and notes multicultural concerns among her areas of focus.
She describes herself as a bilingual and bicultural Latina counselor who prioritizes listening and understanding. She aims to create a space where clients feel heard and welcomed. Alondra offers collaboration rather than directives, asking about what matters most to each person at the start of work together.
Her practice draws on several evidence-based techniques and trauma-informed methods to address symptoms and patterns. Sessions typically include talking through distressing memories, identifying current triggers, and practicing skills for emotion regulation and communication. She helps people name how guilt or shame shows up and what keeps those feelings active in daily life.
Alondra also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, mood disorders, panic, paranoia, personality issues, and post-traumatic stress. She combines different approaches based on a person’s goals and the issues they bring to sessions.
People can expect a collaborative relationship focused on understanding history, current stressors, and small, practical steps forward. She welcomes conversations in Spanish or English and notes that her approach pays attention to cultural background when relevant.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Alondra uses trauma-informed practices and cognitive-behavioral ideas to address thoughts, behaviors, and reactions. Trauma-informed methods focus on recognizing the impact of past harm and reducing reactivity to triggers through pacing and stabilization. Cognitive-behavioral work helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and builds practical skills to manage anxiety, mood, and guilt-related thinking.She also draws on acceptance and mindfulness-based approaches that teach noticing painful feelings without getting driven by them. Those techniques can help with shame and self-criticism by changing the relationship to inner experience rather than trying to force feelings away. Choosing which approaches to use happens together, with the therapist and client agreeing on what fits the person’s goals and preferences.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify which options are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Different formats may also help when video is difficult, or when a quieter setup with less bandwidth is preferable, so check current options before you schedule.
