Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Alejandra! I know that reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, and I strive to make the process as comfortable and welcoming as possible. I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. As a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, and the emotional impact of difficult life experiences. I strive to create a warm, collaborative environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself while working toward meaningful and lasting change.

My approach to therapy

I tailor therapy to each person's unique needs because there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. I draw from evidence-based therapies including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Person-Centered Therapy. Together, we'll identify your strengths, explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools to help you feel more confident, resilient, and empowered in your daily life.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy doesn't mean you need to have everything figured out. During our first session, we'll get to know each other, talk about what brought you to therapy, discuss your goals, and explore any challenges you're currently facing. My priority is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable asking questions and sharing at your own pace. Together, we'll begin building a personalized plan that meets your unique needs and helps you move toward the life you want.
