Dr. Alexandra ("Alix") Price is a clinical psychologist who has more than 18 years of experience assessing and treating various mental health diagnoses across inpatient and outpatient treatment settings. She believes in holistic recovery and is particularly passionate about using education and connection within the therapy relationship to help clients identify areas of meaning, purpose, and resilience. Dr. Price works with adults who are struggling with symptoms related to mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, trauma and complex PTSD, perinatal mental health, grief, life transition problems, women's issues, stress management and adjustment difficulties, and much more.
Dr. Price completed her Doctorate of Psychology (PsyD) at Florida Institute of Technology. She currently practices by telehealth in Virginia where she has been licensed as a clinical psychologist since 2007; she also became licensed in Florida in 2023. She has been credentialed with the National Board of Health Service Psychologists since 2007, and in 2014 became a diplomate of the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP) when she earned board certification in clinical psychology. Most recently, in 2025, she earned a certificate of completion in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders from Postpartum Support International.
While her approach to mental health treatment is largely integrative, Dr. Price relies on intervention skills from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based, solution-focused models. She recognizes the important combination of open communication and goal setting as key within therapeutic relationships.
Dr. Price recognizes the value of having a safe place to talk, balanced with encouragement, support, and challenge to make change.

My go-to approach for helping clients in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is to intently gather comprehensive data about one’s personal thoughts & experiences to ultimately reveal the individual’s worldview and core beliefs about one’s self. I find the best benefit in training clients to utilize the technique of “metacognition” because it facilitates insight and self-awareness, which ultimately unleashes the power to shift & change behavior long-term.
I teach the techniques of metacognition, cognitive reframing, and diaphragmatic breathing. These are core skills that result in shifting maladaptive thinking and promote relaxation, which ultimately results in significant behavioral change.
I know a client is making meaningful progress in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) when the client’s target behavior changes. These positive shifts in behavior oftentimes result in both cognitive and behavioral modifications that ultimately result in significant progress toward specific treatment goals.
Clients can supplement their time in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) by consistently practicing the core skills learned during the therapeutic process on a daily basis. This will reinforce what the clinician and client are doing within the psychotherapy session and substantially increase the probability of change and a positive outcome.
To prepare for their first cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) session, an individual should simply go to their initial visit thinking about the specific issue that they would like to address. This will streamline the treatment process and enable the clinician and client to establish treatment goals in a very efficient manner.
At Thriveworks, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and evidence-based form of psychotherapy or talk therapy. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors that can contribute to various mental health issues or challenges that people are struggling with.
Cognitive behavioral therapists specialize in Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and can help you to identify and comprehend your thought patterns, which often encompass automatic negative thoughts, cognitive distortions, and self-defeating beliefs. Once these negative thought patterns are pinpointed, cognitive behavioral therapists aim to challenge and replace them with the objective of fostering more constructive and logical thinking. In addition, these therapists place significant emphasis on implementing positive behavioral changes based on the newly established, healthier thought patterns.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly effective for addressing conditions like anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. It focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors, making it well-suited for issues related to distorted thinking and emotional regulation.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The success rate of CBT varies depending on the intentions of the client and their condition(s).
The selection between cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is based on an individual’s unique needs and challenges. CBT is commonly chosen for addressing conditions such as anxiety and depression, whereas DBT is especially beneficial for individuals dealing with borderline personality disorder, emotional regulation issues, and difficulties in interpersonal relationships.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with our Thriveworks therapists in Williamsburg, VA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Generally, CBT is considered a short-term therapy, typically lasting for about 12 to 20 weekly sessions. In some cases, it might extend to around 16 to 20 sessions for more complex issues.
