Alejandra Mercado

I’m a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly 10 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, and major life transitions.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and centered around you. I especially enjoy helping people reconnect with their motivation, rediscover a sense of purpose, and heal from past experiences that may still be affecting how they feel about themselves and relate to others.

Together, we’ll explore the patterns that have shaped you, while also developing practical tools to help you move forward. My approach incorporates CBT, ACT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care, while also making space to explore areas such as childhood experiences, self-worth, relationships, spirituality, and life purpose.

My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can better understand yourself, reconnect with what matters to you, and make meaningful changes in your life.

Therapy is available in English and Spanish.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and individualized. I believe meaningful change begins with understanding not only what you are experiencing today, but also the experiences, relationships, and patterns that have shaped how you see yourself and the world around you.

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you, what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to gain from the process. We’ll explore your current concerns, strengths, and goals while beginning to create a personalized plan for moving forward. My priority is to provide a comfortable, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard and understood.
