As a clinician, Alex ensures clients experience a warm, encouraging environment to dive deep and evolve into a healthier, more holistic person. Alex aims to provide a safe, inviting space where clients are able to be authentic and open. Alex also believes that it takes bravery and self-love to commit to therapy, therefore, she empowers each client as they embark on this important journey. 

Alex has clinical experience as a therapist in an outpatient community mental health program working with both adults and adolescents. She has experience working with a wide variety of clients, primarily those challenged with anxiety disorders, depression, body dysmorphia, self-esteem issues, and trauma-related disorders. Being a supporter of the body positivity community, Alex is passionate about helping children and adults find acceptance and a sense of home within their bodies. Alex’s approach to therapy is rooted in Client-Centered and Existential Therapy, while also encompassing modalities of EMDR, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Strength-Based Therapy. Though these therapeutic models remain positive for a lot of clients, Alex will ensure to utilize models that best serve each client’s individual needs.
