Hi, I’m Alex, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who believes therapy should be a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are. I have a special interest in working with women navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences. Together, we’ll build insight, strengthen your confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your current concerns, and talk about your goals, strengths, and relevant life experiences. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing at your own pace, while we begin developing a plan tailored to your needs.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I bring a warm, compassionate, and collaborative approach while also offering honesty and gentle accountability when needed. I value genuine curiosity and strive to help clients understand the deeper patterns behind their thoughts, emotions, and relationships. My goal is not only to help you feel better, but to help you build lasting insight, self-compassion, and meaningful change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with adults who are seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and are ready to make meaningful changes in their lives. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, or the lasting impact of difficult experiences. They often find themselves repeating patterns they no longer want or feeling disconnected from the person they want to be. Together, we explore the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and experiences that have shaped who they are today. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are curious, reflective, and willing to look beneath the surface to better understand themselves. My goal is to help clients develop greater insight, self-compassion, and confidence as they move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

My treatment methods

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing helps people explore mixed feelings about change without judgment or pressure. Rather than telling you what to do, we’ll work together to uncover the motivation and strengths that already exist within you.

Narrative

Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and the experiences we’ve lived through. Together, we’ll explore how certain beliefs, labels, or past experiences may be shaping your current struggles and identify alternative perspectives that feel more empowering and aligned with your values.

Trauma Informed Care

I work at a pace that feels comfortable for you while helping you better understand patterns, strengthen coping resources, and move toward healing.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT to help clients recognize patterns that may be contributing to distress, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and develop healthier ways of responding to life’s challenges. My approach is collaborative and flexible, integrating CBT tools in a way that feels practical and relevant to your unique experiences.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I view therapy as a collaborative process and trust that each person has the capacity for growth, insight, and healing when given the opportunity to explore their experiences openly and honestly.
