Meet Alejandra:

I am a bilingual Spanish/English therapist who takes a warm, collaborative, and attachment-based approach to counseling. I strive to help children feel understood, support parents in understanding the emotions and needs beneath their children's behavior. I also work with adolescents and adults to navigate life’s challenges, better understand themselves and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

Working with Children:

Children may not always have the words to express what they are feeling, and their emotions can sometimes show up through their behavior. My Child-Centered, attachment-based approach helps children feel safe, understood, and supported as they develop emotional awareness, express their needs and build healthier coping skills.

Working With Adolescents:

Adolescence can bring challenges with self-esteem, identity, relationships and managing difficult emotions. I provide a supportive space where teens can feel heard, understood, explore their experiences, and develop greater confidence and practical coping skills. I draw on attachment- based principles, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based strategies to support emotional growth and resilience.

Working with Families:

Understanding a child’s emotional world also means understanding the family relationships and experiences that shape it. I work collaboratively with parents to help them better understand their child’s needs, strengthen communication, and respond to challenging moments with greater confidence and connection. Grounded in Attachment based theory and Family Systems, my approach recognizes how relationships and patterns of interactions within the family influence each member’s emotional well-being.

Working with Adults:

I offer a warm and collaborative space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, feel understood and reconnect with yourself. Using a trauma-informed, attachment-based approach, alongside CBT and mindfulness, I help adults recognize patterns that may be holding them back, process difficult emotions, and develop healthier coping ways of relating to themselves and others.

Experience & Education:

I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology from Kennesaw State University and my Master of Arts in counseling, with an emphasis in Marriage, Family and Child counseling from Palo Alto University. I am currently supervised by Erica Gregory, LMFT with clinical direction from Erin Williams, LMFT. Over the past three years, as a bilingual therapist, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including children, families, and adults. Having lived in different countries and worked with individuals from varied cultural backgrounds, I bring a culturally responsive perspective to my work, recognizing how each person’s background, experiences and family values shape the way they understand themselves and navigate relationships.
