You’re here for a reason; perhaps many. Life can present all kinds of adverse experiences. There is no problem too big or small for which to seek therapy. Do you compare yourself to others only to think that your problems are “pale in comparison”? i.e., “I can handle this on my own.” Perhaps you feel overwhelmed; don’t know where or how to begin? I work with women and utilize feminist empowerment. Reaching out is often the hardest part. Areas of expertise include: Women with PTSD/trauma history; anxiety, depression, relationships, transitions, emotional eating, & loss/grief. Relief is near. www.CompassionateCounselingforWomen.com
By starting with where you are emotionally, we will work together to assist you in developing a deeper understanding of yourself and the nature of your concerns. Utilizing a range of therapeutic approaches specific to your needs, we will work so that you may overcome that which brought you to therapy, so you may find that quiet space within your mind.
“People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” The outcome of therapy is influenced by the nature of the relationship that we co-create. With that in mind, I believe that the development of trust is central to helping you feel safe within. I combine gentleness and practice wisdom with solid clinical expertise. Thank you. Alex

Groups
Intimacy: Interpersonal Authenticity & Connection.
GROUP IS ON HOLD for now. This is an ongoing, psychodynamic group for women with food/eating difficulties focused on building trust in relationships in the "here-and now". This group addresses your struggles in relationship to self, food, and others. It may help you to face difficult feelings related to avoidance of/coping with issues related to intimacy. The group is ongoing; however, members will need to initially commit to six sessions to help ensure continuity, trust and cohesiveness among group members. Group members also need to continue in their individual sessions while in group; frequency to be determined on an individual basis.
