Alexsa is a great person to work with. She is very understanding and well spoken. This is my first time trying something like this and she did not make me feel uncomfortable at all. I would highly recommend Alexsa for anyone, especially if you are new to this (like I was). I'm glad I discovered Better Help and was very pleased with their recommendation for me to pick Alexsa as well.

We’ve only had 2 sessions so far, but so far Alexsa has been an amazing therapist for me! She listens, understands, and knows when to let me ramble and when to step in and give her thoughts on the discussion. I am really looking forward to the sessions we will continue to have!

- LCSW
As a dedicated Clinician, I have had the privilege of working with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, relationship(s), intimacy, family conflict, and trauma. My experience spans crisis stabilization and helping clients process and heal from childhood trauma.
From the start of my career, my goal has been to harness empathy and compassion to support others as they overcome life’s obstacles. I believe in a strengths-based approach to therapy, using your unique capabilities to help you find ways to cope, grow, and thrive.
Taking the first step toward healing can be difficult, but it can also be incredibly empowering. I invite you to contact me for a consultation and begin your journey to healing and self-discovery today.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
