Great to meet you!

Good day, My name is Michael Alexander and I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 18 years of experience, who has worked in a variety of settings , with a focus on relationships and families. I am an African American man who believes in providing safety and comfort for all. I consider myself an ally for the LGBTQI community and believe in taking a non-traditional and dynamic approach to therapy. I am here to support and assist in a non-judgmental and loving way for my clients.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Dynamic, nonjudgmental, safe, nurturing, welcoming

What you can expect from our first session

We are working in partnership together to assess presenting concerns that have impacted their lives. I am committed to creating a safe environment to bolster feelings of confidence in a healing environment. I believe clients should be their full, authentic, and loving self.

Michael's style is

Open-minded
Warm
Affirming
