About

Therapy for sensitive people who try so hard but keep messing up despite the effort, and then feel terrible about it. You understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, but trying to think your way out is just winding you tighter. You know you need to "feel your feelings", but you’re left wondering, “How?!” It is possible to gently change these cycles. You can learn how to build openness and acceptance for your feelings without feeling overwhelmed by them. I’m Alex - I'm a queer IFS therapist. For many years I had the same experience many of my clients have. Now I help clients get out of those familiar, constricting cycles. I use Internal Family Systems to help clients be present with their reactions - even if that feels impossible. This is a great fit for sensitive, anxious, over-thinkers. I work with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent adults, teens who are having a hard time even though they’re really smart, and parents who are finding intense feelings come up while parenting.
