My name is Alexandra (they/them) and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (#103037). While I’m based in San Diego, I’m currently providing therapeutic services throughout California.
I earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Southern California with a concentration in Children and Families and a sub-concentration in Military Social Work.
I have 10 years of non-profit work experience including community building, advocacy, case management, and therapeutic services. Specifically, I have provided trauma-informed care to those affected by mental health challenges, substance abuse/alcoholism, PTSD, and traumas including sexual assault, neglect, abandonment, narcissistic parent, combat related trauma, domestic violence/intimate partner violence, racial/social justice, commercial sexual exploitation/trafficking, and incarceration.
Having lived as a military spouse for 13 years while also raising four children, I understand the challenges with establishing work-life balance, daily stressors, setting healthy boundaries, and practicing self-care.
My approach to therapy includes a humanistic-centered style where we establish a collaborative and trusting relationship that encourages vulnerability and opens the door for personal growth to occur.
