Getting to know Alexa Castaneda

Hi there, I'm Alexa! I'm Alexa Viktoria Castaneda, LMHC, NCC, QS. I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist with over 13 years of experience in the mental health field. I hold an M.S. in Mental Health Counseling from Carlos Albizu University. I am licensed to practice in Florida (License #MH1220) and am Board-certified (NCC). My approach My approach to therapy is integrative, drawing from various evidence-based modalities to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs. I believe in creating a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their challenges and work toward personal growth. My style is collaborative and empathetic, focusing on helping clients develop practical skills for managing their emotions and improving their relationships. My focus My clinical practice focuses on several key areas: anxiety and depression, trauma and PTSD, multicultural issues and identity, couples and relationship counseling, dating and relationship expertise, and family therapy. My most used modalities are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). My communication style I strive to make everyone feel comfortable and understand this is a safe space. I use empathy in all areas of my practice and will meet you where you are to help you make the positive changes needed to continue moving forward. My journey to mental healthcare I am deeply committed to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life's challenges and build stronger, more fulfilling relationships. I believe therapy is a collaborative, empathetic process, and I strive to empower my clients with the tools and insights they need to create lasting positive change in their lives. In my free time, I enjoy journaling, scrapbooking, writing, and working on beginning a cat sanctuary.
