My name is Alexander Warnow and I'm the founder of XY Counseling. At XY we work primarily with adults, teens, and couples helping them to live more fulfilling, connected lives. Often what brings someone to seek therapy is a chronic issue that has reached a crisis point: anger, depression, anxiety, self-worth, intimacy problems, communication issues and many more. Sometimes it is a recent change in one's life: infidelity, a move, or the end of a relationship. Taking the risk to ask for help is the first step on the road towards healing and growth. Our therapists include Jacob Donnelly, Stacey Klein and Walker Witte.
You might find we’re not traditional therapists. Sure, you’ll hear “how does that make you feel?” sometimes. And we want to know about your past. But we try to focus on giving you practical tools you can use today. We believe in the healing power of creativity, mindfulness, laughter, embodiment, and connection.
Finding a therapist you are comfortable with is important. We offer a free 20-minute phone consultation to help you in this process. During this consultation we will explore what it would mean to work together, if it would be a good fit, pricing, and any other questions you might have. Contact us today to set up a time to talk.
