Alexandria Valline

Hello! I am Alexandria! Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or burnout? Struggling to manage life’s challenges, navigate relationships, or find a sense of balance? Counseling with a licensed therapist can help you regain clarity, build resilience, and cultivate a more fulfilling, values-aligned life. I offer a compassionate, evidence-based approach to therapy, counseling, and stress management, tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're dealing with chronic anxiety, emotional dysregulation, trauma, or feelings of disconnection, we will work together to identify the root causes of your struggles and develop tools that empower you to move forward with confidence. My approach blends traditional behavioral therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), with somatic techniques and embodiment practices. This allows us to not only explore distressing thoughts and emotions but also locate and process them within the body, fostering deeper healing and emotional regulation. I also integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for clients seeking trauma resolution and relief from past experiences that continue to impact their present. Therapy is not about simply managing symptoms; it’s about creating meaningful, lasting change. By addressing the nervous system’s role in stress, trauma, and emotional overwhelm, we can develop strategies that support both mental and physical well-being. Through a combination of mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and practical coping techniques, we will work toward helping you feel more grounded, self-aware, and empowered in your daily life. As a therapist with both professional training and lived experience in neurodivergence and various intersectional identities, I understand the unique challenges that come with navigating a world not always designed for diverse ways of thinking and being. This personal insight allows me to offer a more empathetic and tailored approach to your therapeutic journey. If you're seeking a trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and culturally sensitive therapist, I invite you to reach out. I offer a complimentary 15-minute video consultation, where we can explore your needs, discuss how I can support you, and determine if we are a good fit. You are not alone in this journey, and you deserve support that honors your unique experiences. Contact me today to take the first step toward a more balanced, embodied life.
