Great to meet you!

You're good at putting a smile on your face and pushing through when things get tough. You often identify as the "strong one", always there for others. You're checking the boxes in life but you are feeling tired, stressed and overwhelmed. Underneath it all, and you're wondering if things should be this difficult.

Hi, I'm Alejandra Machado, LPC. I work with adults experiencing depression and anxiety and help them find better balance in their lives.

My approach to therapy

I believe that therapy can be a valuable tool in helping one cope with life's many challenges.

I enjoy having conversations with my clients in getting to know them better as we work together to explore, understand and formulate goals that you may want to accomplish. My approach is collaborative in allowing you to guide what is most important to you, drawing from various theories such as cognitive behavioral, solution focused strategies, and mindfulness-based.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know one another in a comfortable and supportive space. We’ll talk about what’s been bringing you to therapy, what you’d like to work on, and some of your past experiences to help me understand your story and how we can best move forward together.
