About Me

Welcome. I’m Alexandra—a Licensed Professional Counselor, trauma-informed coach, public health practitioner, and guide for those walking the healing path. I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through trauma, grief, spiritual emergence, and profound personal transformation.

I hold dual master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and Behavioral Medicine from Boston University and Public Health from San Diego State University. I earned my B.A. in Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin.

My work bridges conventional therapy with sacred tools for healing—including breathwork, somatic awareness, intuitive coaching, and psychedelic integration. I offer a calm and reverent space for people navigating not only trauma and transition, but also deep states of awakening, self-inquiry, and embodied reconnection.

My Approach

I believe healing is not linear. It’s layered, cyclical, and deeply personal. My work is relational, intuitive, and grounded in the belief that your body already holds the wisdom needed to heal.

In addition to therapy and coaching, I specialize in psychedelic preparation and integration, supporting clients before and after experiences with psilocybin, ketamine, and other natural medicines—especially those pursued legally or in ceremonial, therapeutic, or medical settings.

This work includes:

  • Grounding and intention-setting for non-ordinary states

  • Nervous system education and harm reduction

  • Spiritual integration after expanded-state experiences

  • Support for grief, fear, or reorientation that may arise afterward

  • Companioning clients through personal transformation, not pathologizing it

My approach is non-judgmental, trauma-informed, and rooted in the sacred responsibility that comes with altered states.

Personal Journey

I am a mother of two young daughters and the wife of a former Special Operator in the U.S. Naval Armed Forces. These parts of my life have shaped me more than any training or degree ever could.

I have seen how trauma lives in the body—not just in clients, but in the people I love. I have watched my husband walk through PTSD, chronic pain, and the long process of reconnecting to himself. I have navigated motherhood while holding space for someone else’s recovery. I have experienced my own moments of loss, rage, and burnout, and I have learned—sometimes slowly—that healing does not come from pushing through. It comes from being with.

Becoming a parent changed how I understand nervous system regulation, emotional safety, and identity. It made me a more honest therapist. It gave me a front-row seat to how much care and pressure we carry—especially as women—and how little space most people get to lay it down.

What I offer now is informed by all of that. I do not believe in quick fixes or polished coping skills. I believe in attunement, pacing, and honest presence. I work with people in a way that’s real and relational—so they feel less alone, more understood, and better able to meet themselves with compassion.

This work isn’t a job to me. It’s personal. It’s how I show up in the world.
