I take a collaborative approach, tailoring care to each person’s unique needs, goals, and way of processing the world. My work combines thorough psychiatric assessments, thoughtful medication management, and therapy that blends practical tools with deeper insight—often using schema therapy to help shift long-standing patterns. I’m passionate about helping people feel understood, empowered, and equipped for meaningful change.

# Educational background: I am a board-certified psychiatrist. I earned my bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from Duke University and my MD from Tulane University. I completed my psychiatry residency at SUNY Downstate/King’s County, where I served as chief resident.

I have been a clinical social worker for over 20 years and worked in a variety of settings. My goal is to help you realize your strengths, how to set and achieve your therapy goals, listen attentively, and make an achievable plan with you.

I am a clinical social worker and researcher interested in helping individuals navigate life transitions, work-life balance and workplace stress. I maintain a small and focused practice with availability exclusively during evenings and weekends. I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) and Master of Public Health (MPH) from Boston University, as well as a PhD in Social Policy from Brandeis University. My career has focused on promoting community health (individuals and families) through treatment, trauma-informed crisis intervention, trainings, policy, and research.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in helping adults break free from long-standing emotional and relational patterns that keep them stuck in anxiety, disconnection, or self-doubt. My work is grounded in the belief that healing happens not just through insight, but through learning how to feel safe, regulated, and connected both within yourself and in relationship with others.

I earned My Master’s degree in Social Work and is clinically trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS – Level 1), EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic-Based Practices, Ketamine Assisted Therapy, Psychedelics Integration, and Narrative Therapy. I integrate trauma-informed, nervous-system-focused approaches to help clients move beyond coping and into meaningful, embodied change. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and direct, supporting clients in developing self-trust while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve them.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked extensively in the health and wellness field, including roles in movement, bodywork, and mind-body practices. This background strongly informs my holistic approach to therapy and understanding of how emotional experiences are stored and expressed in the body. I pay close attention to how stress, trauma, and attachment wounds show up not just in thoughts, but in physical sensations, behaviors, and relationship dynamics.

In therapy, I help clients build emotional resilience, strengthen communication skills, and develop the capacity to stay grounded during uncomfortable or vulnerable moments. My goal is not to “fix” clients, but to help them understand themselves more deeply, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create relationships and lives that feel aligned, fulfilling, and sustainable.

Alejandra works primarily with a psychodynamic approach that she considers important for helping clients gain insight, a better understanding of themselves, and a better understanding on how their symptoms have manifested and impacted their life.

Alejandra believes that the therapist’s ability to listen to the patients, and to see their underlying issues is one of the most important aspects that contribute to the patients insight and growth in the therapeutic process.

She believes that patient’s symptoms can’t be seen and treated in isolation, and is always important to understand how and when the symptoms have emerged and developed in a persons’s life.
