Who

My name is Alexandra and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) in the state of Texas. My theoretic orientation is rooted in Gestalt therapy, which, to put it succinctly, means my primary aim is to help clients expand their awareness at all levels—body, mind, emotions, and energies. Therapy is an ideal environment to “try on” new experiences and experiment with putting that into practice, but it’s not a matter of me “doing counseling to you.” Rather, I’m right there with you in the here-and-now, simultaneously striving to become more authentic and more aware. It’s a sacred honor and a privilege to be a part of your journey and to have you be a part of mine.

What

Most of us (myself included) have a tendency to “live in our heads,” but while there is enough room for logic in life, there is not enough room for life in logic. We need to go beyond the mind if we wish to explore the deeper dimensions of who we are. Many of the clients I’ve worked with came in naming anxiety, depression, or trauma as their primary concern, but I don’t believe the issue itself is what determines whether we’ll work well together. What matters most is how we work.

My approach is somatic, experiential, and anchored in the present moment. I focus less on diagnosing or fixing, and more on helping you reconnect with your body’s wisdom, explore your inner world with curiosity, and grow from a place of embodied awareness. If you're open to a process that’s less about talking about your problems and more about experiencing your way through them, then we may be a good fit.

For now, I offer therapy services to adult individuals ages 18+ only.

Where

I hold a provisional license in the state of Texas, which means you must reside in Texas in order for us to work together.

Austin, Texas is my home base, but my counseling services are only available via Telehealth at this time. As a Gestalt-oriented and somatic-focused practitioner, I am definitely a fan of in-person therapy and have plans to offer in-person sessions in the future. Stay tuned! For now, I can assure you that you will still get a complete experience that offers the same potential positive outcomes as in-person counseling.
