Getting to know Alexandra Mari Pelonia

You made it, and that matters. Here, you’ll find a grounded space to untangle what’s heavy, strengthen what’s working, and rebuild a sense of hope you can carry forward. My approach My approach to providing care is grounded, collaborative, and hope-focused. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership where you feel seen, supported, and actively involved in your own healing. I work with individuals with various issues, and I tailor treatment to what feels meaningful and manageable to you. My focus My focus is on supporting adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. I help clients who struggle with boundaries, self-criticism, relationship stress, and the pressure to “hold it all together.” Many of my clients come in feeling burned out, uncertain, or weighed down by past experiences that continue to affect them. My communication style My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I create a space where you feel heard and supported without judgment. In session, I’m open and engaged, asking thoughtful questions, offering gentle reflections, and providing clear guidance when helpful. My goals for you My role is to help you slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and rebuild a sense of grounding and confidence. I bring a warm, collaborative approach that helps you understand your patterns, strengthen your coping skills, and reconnect with hope, even if you haven’t felt it in a long time. My first session with you A first session with me is calm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel comfortable. We’ll start by talking about what brought you in, what you’ve been struggling with, and what you hope to gain from therapy. I’ll ask gentle, open-ended questions to understand your history, your current concerns, and what support looks like for you.
