New to Grow
Hello, I'm Alex Cirilo, LCSW. I have nearly 10 years of experience working in the mental health field, providing compassionate care to individuals from diverse backgrounds. Throughout my career, I have supported clients facing challenges such as substance use, depression, anxiety, and trauma. As an EMDR-certified therapist, I specialize in helping individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. My approach is collaborative and personalized, incorporating a variety of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to meet each client's unique needs. Together, we will identify meaningful, achievable short- and long-term goals and work toward creating lasting, positive change.
During our first session, we will conduct a comprehensive assessment to identify the internal and external factors that may be negatively affecting your well-being and quality of life. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan designed to address these challenges, support your goals, and help you build a more meaningful, balanced, and fulfilling life.
My therapeutic approach is open-minded, collaborative, and structured to support each client's success. I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, tailoring treatment to each client's unique needs, strengths, and personal goals.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Understanding how your thoughts influence your emotions, behaviors, and life outcomes is a key step toward creating meaningful and lasting change. By identifying and reshaping unhelpful thought patterns, you can develop healthier behaviors, improve emotional well-being, and achieve your personal goals.
EMDR
EMDR therapy can help you process and heal from past traumatic experiences, reducing the emotional distress and trauma responses that may continue to affect your daily life. By addressing the root of these experiences, EMDR can support lasting healing, greater emotional resilience, and the freedom to move forward with greater confidence and well-being.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I believe it is important to recognize and understand how cultural backgrounds, values, and lived experiences influence our thoughts, behaviors, relationships, and overall perspective. Incorporating cultural awareness into the therapeutic process helps create a more respectful, inclusive, and individualized approach to care.
Interpersonal
Developing insight into your internal conflicts and learning effective strategies to manage them can foster greater self-awareness, emotional balance, and healthier decision-making.
Motivational Interviewing
Recognizing and building upon your unique strengths can empower you to overcome challenges, achieve your goals, and create a more confident, resilient, and fulfilling future.
