Therapy with Alexandra.

Warmth + Candor

Present, playful, and collaborative.

My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by curiosity across disciplines, places, languages, and ways of being human. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can be honest without being judged. I may gently challenge you, point out a pattern I am noticing, or ask the question you have been avoiding.

My goal is to reflect your patterns more clearly and support you to engage your agency to create new relational experiences.

I offer tools to understand and practice, so insight becomes integration. You are the expert on your life; I am here to help you make choices aligned with your values and understand what is happening between you and the people you love. I am interested in what comes after insight and self-awareness and foster a space to answer the question “now what?” We build skills for interrupting repeating patterns and take an intentional next step toward a different way of being.

What informs the work

An integrative, relational perspective.

My approach draws from attachment-based, systemic, experiential, and relational therapies. I am interested in attachment history, nervous-system and body awareness, culture, and lived experience—and in how each of these shapes what happens between people. I am trained in systemic work as a Marriage and Family Therapist candidate (MFTC) and as an individual therapist candidate (LPCC).

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic approaches, Narrative Therapy, Relational Life Therapy, and a systemic lens inform the work. They are not a script; the process is shaped around you.
