Are you seeking change? Or looking for a way forward?

Meet Alex

I believe in every individual’s innate wisdom and strengths, even when – or especially when – you might doubt yourself or challenges seem overwhelming and insurmountable. We are all connected, through the Four Elements and through our shared human experiences, which for many of us include struggles with difficult emotions and complexities like family systems, losses, identities, transitions, and relationships.

I bring optimism, a commitment to social justice and deep ecology, and an awareness of systems of oppression and my own privileged identities to my counseling practice and every aspect of my life. I practiced law for more than 15 years, and then made the transition to my second career, which inspires me every day as I work with clients in collaborative, connected and positive alliances. 

Trainings in EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Grief Work, Holistic Sex Therapy, and Play Therapy supplement my somatic and cognitive approaches to counseling, which often also involves Parts Work. Client explorations and challenges in my practice frequently concern anxiety, depression, career and work issues, spirituality, grief, trauma and PTSD, intergenerational trauma and colonization, eating disorders, sexuality, climate-aware ecopsychology, and identity and LGBTQIA2S experiences.
