I’ve had the pleasure of working with Alexandra Poolt, and I can confidently say that she has been instrumental in my personal growth journey. As someone who has faced challenges with trusting others, finding a therapist who I could open up to was not easy. However, Alexandra found just the right approach to communicate with me effectively, making me feel understood and respected. One of the most significant areas where Alexandra helped me was in setting personal boundaries. Her approach is profoundly individualized, treating each client according to their unique needs and situations. Alexandra's ability to connect and her deep understanding of my issues have helped me understand myself better. It’s rare to find a therapist who truly tailors their approach to each client the way she does.

Alex made me feel heard. She helped me to identify and challenge my negative thinking patterns, and helped me see things from a different perspective. I am learning to listen to my feelings, and validate myself.

In her practice, she combines her honest personality, genuine care for others, and a sense of humor to develop real plans of action to tackle thinking and behavior patterns that affect people's lives.

With 17 years of experience as an advocate and therapeutic practitioner in both rural and urban settings, Alexandra began her career working with children.

I work with Alexandra on my family and divorce issues. After our meeting I feel relieved to deal with my issues. She is a great listener, compassionate and symphatetic human being. She is good providing feedback on my goals & progress. I would recommend Ms. Poolt for a person deal w/ post traumatic stress disorder, empowerment, parenting advice, self care, setting limits etc.

I first started seeing Alexandra in 2017, and have never doubted my decision. She is very thoughtful, professional and perceptive. Alexandra is more engaging and insightful than any other coach I have ever used.
Highly recommend for therapy and coaching sessions.
