Hello! So glad you are here. My name is Alex (she/her) and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing in the field for five years. I received a Master’s in Social Work from Boston College, with a Certificate in Mental Health & Trauma. Previously, I worked with refugee and asylum seeking populations in the Refugee Resettlement Program.

More recently, I have experience working with children and families as an In-Home Therapist and Intensive Care Coordinator and with individuals in inpatient behavioral health. I also facilitated in piloting a Short-Term Outpatient Therapy Program with Wayside Youth & Families in Framingham, MA and have been providing individual outpatient therapy the past two years to all ages and stages of life.

I also am an avid outdoor rock climber (for the past 12 years) and can support individuals who are looking for support within their own sport/athletic hobby in mindset and performance focus, trauma processing, or exploration around risk within climbing and alpinism.

Welcome! I am a compassionate therapist dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families navigating life's most painful or complex challenges. My practice focuses heavily on helping people heal from trauma, manage stress and anxiety, work through depression, and navigate difficult relationship or family dynamics. I have a deep passion for supporting women's unique experiences—including maternal, pregnancy, and postpartum mental health—as well as helping individuals explore identity, cope with chronic health conditions, and process grief or life transitions. No matter who you are or what background you come from, my goal is to provide an inclusive, open-minded space where you feel genuinely seen, respected, and heard.
