Alexandra Thomson
I'm an LCSW who believes therapy works best when it feels thoughtful, supportive and collaborative. I value creating a space where people can slow down, reflect and better understand themselves without pressure or judgement.
My greatest strength is helping people feel understood while gaining insight into patterns that no longer serve them, in a way that feels steady, respectful and supportive.
I believe meaningful change happens through understanding yourself more deeply, building self-compassion and feeling supported along the way. I use an insight-oriented, trauma informed approach, integrating practical skills when helpful to support lasting change.
First session
The first session is a chance for us to get to know one another and begin building a comfortable, supportive working relationship. We'll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you've already tried and what you're hoping to gain. We'll move at a pace that feels respectful and manageable. There's no pressure to share everything at one. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling heard, grounded and with a clearer sense of what our work together could look like.

Treatment methods
Eclectic
My approach is insight-oriented and collaborative. I use an eclectic, trauma-informed lens to tailor therapy to each person rather than following a rigid model.
