Meet Alexandra

I take a creative approach to my client's needs by combining traditional talk therapy with mindfulness and body based treatment modalities and techniques– including Somatic Experiencing, attachment focused EMDR and Inner Relationship Focusing (IFR). I have over 15 years of experience helping individuals with issues related to anxiety, eating disorders, trauma (developmental, medical and shock), panic, depression, and relationship issues.

I believe in the power of this work having been on the other side of the couch myself and seeing first hand the positive change therapy can provide. I also bring an innate ability to connect with many different kinds of people, and a tireless devotion to client success. This is not a job for me, it is a lifestyle.

Through our work together my clients will come to feel more understood, more comfortable and more confident in their lives.
