Hello there, I'm Alex! Welcome to my small corner on the internet :)

I cherish joy, play, and fostering deep connections with others.

I work relationally, meaning our relationship is a central part of the work. I specialize in creating a safe haven for clients who struggle with anxiety, trauma, depression, and emotional disconnect. I believe that the therapy space is a powerful tool for reacquainting yourself with the strengths and skills you already hold.

Using a collaborative and client-centered approach, I incorporate elements of mindfulness, attachment theory, depth therapy and EMDR. In our sessions, we’ll explore how early family experiences have shaped the way you move through the world, deepen your self-understanding, and work together to shift the patterns you’re ready to leave behind.

I graduated from California State University Northridge with my bachelors and received my masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from Touro University.

I have been with and trained at Southern California Counseling Center for four years, where I witnessed the incredible journeys of my clients. In addition to working with individuals, couples and children, I have facilitated a variety of groups, including teen/childrens' grief groups with Our House, a social anxiety support group with Anita Avedian (LMFT), and a trauma-informed womens' anger management / DV group. I am currently working as an individual therapist with Hope Therapy Group in Southern California.
