Hello! So glad you are here. My name is Alex (she/her) and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing in the field for five years. I received a Master’s in Social Work from Boston College, with a Certificate in Mental Health & Trauma. Previously, I worked with refugee and asylum seeking populations in the Refugee Resettlement Program.
More recently, I have experience working with children and families as an In-Home Therapist and Intensive Care Coordinator and with individuals in inpatient behavioral health. I also facilitated in piloting a Short-Term Outpatient Therapy Program with Wayside Youth & Families in Framingham, MA and have been providing individual outpatient therapy the past two years to all ages and stages of life.
I also am an avid outdoor rock climber (for the past 12 years) and can support individuals who are looking for support within their own sport/athletic hobby in mindset and performance focus, trauma processing, or exploration around risk within climbing and alpinism.

I have been in the field for over fifteen years. I have worked in a variety of settings, with children, adolescents and adults. My current focus for the past several years has been on supporting adults, particularly those seeking support around life transitions, relationships and anxiety. I also have years of experience and enjoy working with folks in the LGBTQIA+ community. I regularly partake in continuing education, which I find exciting and helpful in keeping up with current themes in mental health care, such as exploring social justice issues through a mental health lens.
