Hi, I'm Alexa. I would love to help you grow. Perhaps you're looking for a caring, supportive ear that will listen and validate your feelings and experiences. Maybe you could use a soundboard for your creative ideas to solve your problems. I can share useful tools to combat struggles and help you learn to make small changes that can have a big impact on your life. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome whatever is holding you back. Welcome to my virtual office!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, we will work to get to know each other. Next, we will set goals that are important to you. We will create objectives that you can achieve each week to help you get closer to your goal. I'll help keep you on track and equip you with new skills.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use various treatment modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, exposure therapy, and motivational interviewing.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I seek to understand and validate my client's life experiences. I do not judge or criticize.

I treat individuals with mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, borderline personality disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, psychotic disorders and substance use disorders.
