Getting to know Alexa Castillo

Alexa is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. As a Latina woman, she brings a deep understanding of cultural identity and is dedicated to providing client-centered, culturally sensitive care to her clients. She specializes in working with children and adolescents, using trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches that emphasize safety, collaboration, and that incorporate the child’s emerging authentic voice. Alexa is known to integrate play and storytelling through video games in therapy, helping teens express themselves, build emotional regulation skills, and develop tools for real-world change. She integrates psychoeducation for both clients and caregivers, helping them understand the impact of trauma and guiding interventions at a pace that supports healing and readiness. Alexa’s therapeutic approach is integrative and flexible, grounded in creating a safe, affirming space for growth and healing. She views therapy as a collaborative process, honoring each client as the expert of their own life. She is especially passionate about neurodiverse-affirming care and is committed to supporting individuals with complex needs and histories of harm. Alexa has worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating housing insecurity, reentry from incarceration, and a history of complex trauma—experiences that have shaped her deep respect for the ways people adapt to survive challenging environments and thrive as the work of healing takes root. In her free time, Alexa enjoys spending time with loved ones, reading nonfiction, and long walks on the beach with her dog.
