Getting to know Alex Honigman
Hi, I’m Alex Honigman, LCSW. I specialize in working with adult men navigating the intense pressures of high-performance careers and the entertainment industry. Many of my clients struggle silently with anxiety, relationship challenges, infidelity, or sex and pornography addiction while trying to maintain success. My approach is practical and straightforward, helping you build healthier habits and relationships without judgment. With over 15 years of experience in forensic psychology, addiction recovery, and relational therapy, I provide insights and strategies to help you live a life that truly reflects your values and goals.
My approach
My approach is direct, warm, and deeply practical. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe to be fully honest without fear of judgment while gaining real tools to create meaningful change. I integrate Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, recovery models, and integrated mental health frameworks to help you challenge unhelpful thinking, build healthier habits, and improve your relationships with yourself and others. For men in high-pressure roles or entertainment careers, I focus on understanding your unique context and challenges while providing straightforward insights to help you move forward effectively. Therapy with me isn't about sitting in endless reflection without change; it's about gaining clarity and momentum toward goals that matter to you. We'll identify what’s getting in your way, develop practical strategies to overcome those barriers, and build a new approach to life that feels more aligned with who you truly are. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship strain, addictive patterns, or a sense of being stuck, we will work together to build healthier, value-driven pathways forward.
My focus
I primarily work with adult men who are feeling the weight of high expectations, whether in demanding careers, leadership roles, or the entertainment industry.
