I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 20 years counseling addiction and substance abuse needs and 10 years counseling couples, families, children and adults. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including l adjusting to change, navigating transitions in life, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting and career needs. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is based on principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and is both warm and interactive. I operate from a base of mental health wellness and focus on self care so as to navigate the victories of life and the more challenging transitions. This process allows us to work together from a strengths based perspective and facilitate growth.
The desire to be intentional about your journey takes courage, heart and imagination.
I look forward to exploring with you!

Her ability to actively listen and provide valuable insight on every issue I may bring up has been extremely helpful. She is very thoughtful in how she guides each therapy session, while also always keeping things positive.

Alexandra has been so comforting and helpful to me. Our time has been short but so far I can really see how she is helping me with practical ways to work on what is troubling me. I appreciate her affirmations as well as her honesty.
