Hello! My name is Alex and I'm a licensed clinical social worker. I enjoy working with people that are going through life transitions, are struggling with identity, and those that are feeling stuck. I have experience working with children and families impacted by chronic illness and/or grief due to loss of a loved one (including pets). I also have expertise in working with people who identify as being in a marginalized group as well.

Are things feeling heavy? Does your heart ache? Are you struggling to manage? Are you anxious? The stress of life can definitely be challenging at times and can really get us feeling down and overwhelmed. I offer you my support and compassion through this time. Let's work together to get you feeling better. I have been working in the field of Mental Health for over 22 years, with 17 years of experience as a Psychotherapist. I am passionate about my work, and being a therapist is my true calling. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, or grief, there is help and hope. Reaching out is the first step!

Effective counseling is all about connection. We seek to be understood, to be known, and to share life with someone else. Counseling provides a safe place to try out ways of connecting with another person, with ourselves, and with our world without fear of hurting others or our own reputation in the process. The majority of my clients come to me wanting to work on navigating life with differences of gender identity and sexuality; taking time to share in a safe place is vitally important.

Feeling the weight of the past holding you back? Looking for new and more helpful ways to heal and move forward? Wanting to lean into the healthiest version of yourself? Though it is not talked about enough, these types of challenges are not uncommon in this human experience and we all struggle, at points in our lives, with how we react and respond to different situations because of our experiences we've had that affect our thoughts, feelings and emotions. I believe that you are capable of breaking away from what no longer serves you and finding your way towards a more intentional and fulfilling life.

Life can be hard can be so hard. Has stress, sadness, and worry been present for so long you can’t remember what good feels like? Does it seem like between Covid, politics, and life in general that it is hard to make it through the day sometimes? Has your sadness and anxiety escalated to feel almost unbearable? You are not alone. And help is present! My role with Lotus is to help you live your best life. Your values, lifestyle, and expectations are important to you and therefore important to our work together. Please join me on the path to healing, peace, and self-acceptance.

Transitions of all kinds can be SCARY and HARD, and may leave one stuck in a place of powerlessness and frustration. Living and getting through each day may be PAINFUL - whether because of isolation or too much togetherness and conflict (or both!). Struggles make hearing others and feeling heard more difficult. Managing our feelings and relationships is easier "wished" for than accomplished. I can help you choose the right words, figure out where you are in life and relationships, and find your way through difficult times.

Life is constantly changing, and difficulties inevitably arise. There are times when these difficulties can become so overwhelming that it seems impossible to overcome. I offer help to those who are experiencing various hardships so that they are able to understand the underlying dynamics that are the root cause of their problems, and help them create positive changes in their life. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere my clients are offered a highly personalized approach where they can safely attain the personal growth they are striving for.

In the moments, when you feel stuck, unsafe, or overwhelmed; I'm here to help. My goal is to work alongside you as you interact with your own inner strength, self-worth, and capacity for love as you grow toward the best version of yourself. Perhaps trauma, an eating disorder, or depression has made you feel disconnected, lonely, and empty. My work with individuals, families, and found families helps people to reconnect, or connect for the first time, with themselves, with others, and with the world around them as their true, authentic selves.

Are you stuck in an emotional experience that feels never-ending? Maybe you carry a feeling of numbness that you can't shake. Perhaps anxiety is a constant companion. Do you worry your relationships are suffering because of your emotional state? I help clients explore their relationship with their thoughts and emotions and gain insight into what keeps them stuck and unhappy. Through our work together, we can decrease your distress, increase your range of emotions, and enhance your connection with others. I particularly enjoy working with clients who have attempted therapy in the past but still feel stuck and unsatisfied in life.

I am a psychodynamically trained therapist specializing in body (somatic), nature (eco-therapy), and mindfulness-based approaches to psychotherapy. I work with folks who want a fresh perspective, holistic support, and empowerment for their mental health journey. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, adjustments and transitions, anger, self-esteem, body image concerns and disordered eating, religious trauma, spiritual concerns, and neurodivergent living, I am along for the ride. I strive to embody both cultural humility and multiculturalism, creating a safe space that supports BIPOC, LGBTQIA+.

Clients who have found our work together to be beneficial have been open to exploring current and past relationships/experiences that may be impacting them in their daily lives. We will work collaboratively to establish goals and set milestones to help you meet those goals.
