More about Alexandra

  • 1 year's experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

If you often feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by shame or guilt, or stuck in painful relationship patterns, you’re not alone. These feelings often stem from early attachment wounds and can leave you disconnected from yourself and others. I work with thoughtful, self-aware individuals ready to explore the deeper roots of their struggles. Therapy with me is a space to feel seen and supported as you reconnect with your strengths, understand what holds you back, and build tools for lasting change.
