Getting to know Dr. Alex Purring
What prevents us from being the best version of ourselves? When we are optimal, life is more gratifying-we accomplish goals, feel good, and experience daily satisfaction. The challenge is that life happens and can disrupt that balance.
My objective is to be your life coordinator, therapist, and #1 fan, helping you strive to be the best version of yourself, physically and mentally. I currently serve in the United States Air Force, focusing on performance enhancement with High-Reliability Organizations, including Special Forces, pilots, and other operators of diverse backgrounds. I am passionate about increasing performance ability, regardless of the context.
I earned my PsyD in Counseling from Chaminade University of Honolulu, which has equipped me to integrate mind and body approaches effectively. Together, we will explore how these interact and address multiple aspects of your life-from sleep and routine to motivation and mental health challenges. We will process ongoing issues, target specific challenges, and work toward your goals.
What should a new client know about working with you?
We will example several domains of your life, to better identify what variables contribute to your identified challenge(s). We call this a holistic approach to therapy/consultation. My philosophy - we can talk all day about our problems, but nothing changes until we actually make change. We will set concrete goals and implement lifestyle progression, which is the idea that small, behavioral changes over time creates habit, physically and mentally, so you start living each day how you want to live.
I emphasize a collaborative approach; how do YOU see the best version of yourself? Describe the vision, and we will get there.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
