Getting to know Alexa Aversano

I’m Alexa Aversano, a marriage and family therapist based in Pasadena, CA, and I work with clients both in person and virtually through Spark All Wellness. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I take time to get to know you—not just your symptoms—so we can work together in a way that feels safe, meaningful, and effective. I specialize in trauma-focused therapy and EMDR, helping individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or impacted by past experiences move toward healing and relief. Many of my clients come in feeling exhausted from “just getting by,” and together we work toward feeling more grounded, regulated, and connected in daily life.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You don’t have to show up with everything figured out, or even know where to start. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy works best when it feels human, not intimidating. I do my best to make space for laughter and lightness alongside the hard work.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

This first phase of therapy is typically all about building trust, understanding your history, and identifying goals that actually matter to you. We'll take time to get to know your story and what your goals are for therapy. From there, we work collaboratively to create a therapy plan tailored to your needs. I use evidence-based approaches, including trauma-informed therapy such as DBT, CBT and EMDR when appropriate, and we’ll talk openly about what feels helpful, what doesn’t, and how we adjust along the way. Therapy isn’t something I do to you—it’s something we do together.
