Alesia Wesley
Hello and welcome to my page! While I'd like to say that I'm here to solve all of your problems, I am not. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe space for you to express your thoughts/feelings, gain insight and bravery so you can create the life you deserve by mitigating the intrusive thoughts and feeling of overwhelmness.

First session
I use a three-prong approach in session, however it is ultimately up to the client if they desire to go in another direction. With knowledge, one gains insight, understanding and ultimately self-compassion; through mindfulness and psycho-education about life challenges, this can be achieved. Lastly to process thoughts and feelings is important.
Strengths
One of my major strengths is my ability to provide a space that is safe, warm and reflective for the clients I serve. I also believe having the hard conversations is paramount, and with a gentle heart.
Ideal clients
I love working with adult individuals from a variety of background that need help with identifying their strengths and truths and then living from there.
