Hello!
I have always felt a deep calling to help others. Early in life, I recognized that my passion lay in supporting people as they navigate challenges, discover their strengths, and make meaningful changes. This calling led me to pursue a career in mental health and become a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California.

I will challenge you to overcome the challenges you see in your life with support and positive feedback.
I work with adults who carry a lot — often more than others realize. On the outside, you may seem capable and grounded. On the inside, anxiety feels persistent, old experiences still surface, and the ways you've been coping may no longer be working. Whether you're navigating trauma, burnout, a major life transition, or patterns that keep pulling you back, I offer a steady, nonjudgmental space to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and build something more sustainable. With over 10 years in mental health, I bring a trauma-informed, culturally aware perspective to every session — focused on your whole story, not just your symptoms.

Hello, My name is Alex Haydon. I am a Licensed Therapist, and I'm thrilled that you are reaching out for help and support! I have been licenced for over 13 years, but have been providing therapy since approximately 2007 when I began my practicum, and internships. I have worked with a vast amount of clientele ranging from simple Adjustment Disorders to Major Depressive Disorder, Severe, to Bi Polar I and II. I also have quite a bit of experience working with Psychotic Disorders, such as Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, and Mood Disorders with Psychotic Features. I have also worked with addictive behaviors, such as Alcohol and other drugs, Gambling, Sex and Pornography addiction, etc.
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming — especially if you’ve spent years feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or trapped in unhealthy relationship patterns. You may be carrying the effects of trauma, chronic stress, people-pleasing, or narcissistic abuse while trying to hold everything together on the outside. If that sounds familiar, you are not alone, and healing is possible.
I work with adults and adolescents who struggle with anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, emotional overwhelm, relationship wounds, and the lasting impact of narcissistic or emotionally abusive partner or parent/childhood relationships. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in survival mode — constantly overthinking, walking on eggshells, questioning themselves, or feeling emotionally drained. Together, we work to help you feel safer in your body, more confident in your boundaries, and more connected to who you truly are.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in creating a space where you feel genuinely seen and understood without judgment. I believe therapy should feel supportive and empowering, not clinical or cold. I integrate evidence-based approaches while also focusing deeply on emotional safety, self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and practical tools you can use in everyday life.
Whether you are recovering from trauma, navigating difficult partner relationships, struggling with anxiety, or trying to rebuild your sense of self after emotional abuse, therapy can help you regain clarity, confidence, and peace. You do not have to continue carrying this alone.
Reaching out for help takes courage. If you’re ready to begin healing and creating healthier patterns, I’d be honored to support you.
