About
Alexa

Welcome! As a mental health therapist, I am committed to supporting individuals of all ages and backgrounds on their journey toward healing and personal growth. My goal as a clinician is to support you in creating lasting positive change and finding balance in your life!

In session, I take a client-centered approach, rooted in empathy, respect, and cultural sensitivity. I employ many modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. With a strong belief in the mind-body connection, I aim to create a safe and comfortable space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment.

I specialize in working with those navigating challenging life experiences, adjusting to change, working with symptoms of anxiety and depression, and responding to traumatic events. I received my education from the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Master’s Program from the City University of New York.

Whether it is your first time in therapy, or you are continuing your mental health journey, I look forward to meeting with you!
