“Alex has been awesome to work with and I will keep seeing her specifically for as long as I can. She is a wonderful piece to the puzzle for my life as I navigate this transition. She helps me find the words I am feeling or trying to get out and helps me put the pieces together that I am seeing. It's an amazing feeling having a takeaway every single time.”

Getting to know Alex Ernest
Hello, my name is Alex Ernest, and I am fully licensed as an LPC in the state of Georgia. I have been working in the mental health field for nearly 8 years, and I really enjoy helping people work through their core struggles and work towards finding and living their true self. I approach each session based on what each person needs. I will utilize interventions like CBT, existential, art-therapy, solution-focused, etc., to help gain healthy coping skills and knowledge to work through all of life's challenges. I love to use humor, support and empowerment to build a strong relationship with each client. I always tell the people I work with that the therapy relationship can work as a model for creating healthy relationships, and I work towards creating an environment that can model that.

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.
