(LPC, EMDR)

About Me

Being a psychotherapist for over 25 years, I have had the honor and privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families providing holistic support for all of life’s challenges. I deeply love what I do and I bring all of my education, experience, and most of all compassion and understanding to help you understand yourself. From my perspective, the goal of therapy is to let go of outdated ways of living that make you feel stuck and and in survival mode, and to to live with freedom, joy, and most of all to thrive. My approach is holistic, in that everything that is happening in your life is seen as a doorway towards understanding yourself and ultimately healing what needs to be healed and to awaken the inner resources and capacities to life with exhuberance.
Throughout my life, I have continued to educate myself into the best practices for what you need. From a holistic perspective, we will explore body-mind-spirit to address each of the integrated systems. We all seek to thrive and that is my mission with you. I have been trained in Eastern and Western psychology and philosophy and integrate what you need. In addition, I have specialized in addiction and trauma treatment for the last 12 years and incorporate EMDR(eye Movement Desensitization and reprocesssing) as the cutting edge tool towards healing. I am also trained as a couples therapist and work with couples through all stages of relationship in helping them understand and heal themselves within the context of relationship. And finally, I am a yoga instructor and meditation teacher and I help guide others on their spiritual journey.
I look forward to taking the journey with YOU.

I am so grateful for Alex's help. He is honest and direct, sees through the cobwebs and gets right to the heart of things, unlike anyone I'd spoken to before. He has helped me to get out of a deep rut and move forward with a new perspective, which I can already see will allow me to shape my life for the better. Thank you!

Alex is an amazing man with an amazing soul.
He can help you in a very effective way. He gets straight to right point as he is very aware of your energy and on what you REALLY need.
So I tell you to really trust him and go for what he says.
Let him ''take the lead'' in his gentle way and you will get where you want to be.
