I am a License Clinical Social Worker with four years of experience working with diverse populations. I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and adjustment-related challenges.
Hello! I am so happy to introduce myself to you. I have over 20 years of experience working as a therapist. I love being a therapist because I enjoy meeting new people and getting to know their stories. I’m a firm believer in treating the person in front of me, not the diagnosis or code. I don’t believe in seeing someone as their struggle. I help people cope with their symptoms or challenges and to become the best version of themselves. I use many therapeutic frameworks to accomplish this. I never follow one framework only. That shortchanges the opportunities for improvement to me.
I have nearly a decade of experience working with a variety of individuals with many backgrounds. I emphasize the importance of a trauma-informed and supportive approach. I have expertise in treating a number of diagnoses, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and trauma. I offer a number of modalities, including CBT, MI, DBT, EMDR and IFS.
I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a master's degree from Pace University! With my experience in diverse environments from inpatient psych hospitals to intensive in-home programs, I bring a broad range of clinical skills and a flexible compassionate approach to supporting individuals with varying mental health needs.
Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming — whether it’s anxiety, ADHD, school stress, or simply navigating life's ups and downs. Maybe you're feeling stuck in relationships, school, or work and your goal is to feel more balanced, confident, and capable of handling daily challenges while building long-term resilience and growth. Regardless of what you're facing, I'm here to help. I’m Dr. Alex Luna, a Columbia and Cornell trained psychiatrist specializing in the care of adults, children, and adolescents.
Therapy is a space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and supported as you work toward meaningful change. I strive to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself and sharing openly.
My approach is interactive and collaborative, and I understand that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Together, we will work through current life stressors, build on your strengths, and find tools that fit your individual needs. My goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges while feeling more confident, connected, and authentic.
I have a deep commitment to seeing people flourish in relationship to themselves, and to others. For many of us, we have some sense of what makes relationships great and what makes them terrible. Knowing and experiencing what makes great relationships stronger, and what turns terrible relationships around, is where I can work alongside you. As someone who has been stepped in Attachment science, I love allowing for people to make more coherent sense of their internal world, to build or restore bonds with others.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with five years of experience providing individual and couples therapy in both private practice and community mental health settings. I earned my bachelor's degree from Tufts University and my Master of Social Work from New York University.
I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‐I) and help adults who struggle with falling asleep, staying asleep, early morning awakenings, or long‐term sleep disruption. My style is warm, clear, and practical. I focus on helping clients understand the root causes of insomnia and build sustainable habits that support restorative sleep and overall wellbeing.
Providing therapy to individuals for over 20 years, as a Clinical Psychologist currently licensed in New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, and Virginia, I am also able to offer the convenience of telehealth services to individuals who work, attend school, and/or live in multiple states.
Life is hard- therapy doesn't have to be! I work hard to create a judgement-free and open space where we work to build deep trust. Compassion, empathy, and sense of humor are an integral part of my practice. I am patient and recognize that relationships are built over time and will work to earn your trust: not expect or demand it. This is the basis on which I've built strong relationships with my long-term clients.
I attended NYU for grad school and then worked with people with chronic homelessness and severe mental illnesses. After that, I transitioned to work in community mental health with families and children with a concentration in trauma. For the last ten years, I've worked full-time with college and grad students so have a specialty working with young adults. When I'm not serving clients, you can find me at the gym, fostering kittens, or on the racetrack trying to beat my last lap.
