Hi, I’m Alex!

I know firsthand that your 20's and 30's can be especially challenging while figuring out who you really are and navigating shifts in your relationships, career, and all these new ‘adulting’ obligations! I am here to help! I work with clients on a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, self-esteem, and identity exploration. I have a strong passion for working with the LGBTQ+ identifying and BIPOC communities and addressing the unique challenges that they face.
