Hi, I’m Alex.
Grounded. Collaborative. Honest.
I don’t offer surface-level fixes. I work with people who want real, lasting change, even if they’re not sure what that looks like yet.
This work isn’t about perfection.
It’s about becoming more whole and more able to show up in your life in a way that feels true. I believe in that process because I’ve lived it.
Honest Work, Real Growth
Even as a kid, I was drawn to big questions about suffering, connection, and what it means to live a meaningful life. While others looked for answers in success or distraction, I turned toward stillness and deeper reflection.
I took the structured path for a while. I studied Health Sciences, worked in physical health, but I knew something was missing. The change I wanted to support went far deeper than what a checklist could touch.
Why I Became a Therapist
I didn’t just study therapy, I lived it.
I spent years feeling anxious, numb, and disconnected. Early help felt clinical and surface-level. But when I finally sat with a therapist who met me in a real, relational way, things began to shift.
I learned I wasn’t “broken.”
What I’d carried was unprocessed pain, old survival strategies, and disconnection that had never been named — until then.
With the right support, I came back to myself. More grounded, more whole, more able to show up.
What I Offer Now
That’s the kind of space I offer:
Real. Collaborative. Human.
Not to “fix” you, but to help you turn toward what matters.
Many of the people I work with have already tried other therapies or self-development approaches. They’re informed, but still stuck. Still disconnected. Still searching for something deeper.
This isn’t checkbox therapy.
It’s about feeling more connected to yourself, your relationships, and your own life.
That can mean:
Facing pain you’ve carried alone for too long
Finding your voice again
Unlearning patterns that once helped you cope but now hold you back
Whatever it looks like, the aim is the same:
Genuine change, at your pace, with someone beside you.
Why This Work Matters
I do this work because I know what it’s like to feel lost and alone in your experience.
Therapy made a difference in my life — not just to survive, but to feel more here. More engaged. More real.
You’re not broken.
You’re human.
And something deeper in you is asking to be heard.
