Getting to know Alexandra Smith

Sometimes, the pressure to be perfect can leave you feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from yourself. Maybe you’re trying to care for your family, stay connected to your partner, keep up with work, and somehow find time to take care of yourself, too. When it feels like everyone needs something from you, your own needs can quickly become the last thing on the list. I specialize in supporting mothers and families through pregnancy, postpartum, and the many emotional shifts that can come with life transitions. You may be feeling anxious, exhausted, disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by the pressure to “do it all,” or wondering why this chapter doesn’t feel the way you thought it would. Therapy can be a place where you don’t have to hold everything together. I also work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship challenges, overwhelming emotions, and major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand or like they’ve been carrying too much on their own. Together, we’ll make space for your experiences and explore how your relationships, past experiences, and the expectations you’ve absorbed about who you’re “supposed” to be may be shaping how you feel today. We can work toward feeling more grounded, strengthening your relationships, and creating space for your own needs alongside the needs of others. My goal is to create a space where you can put down some of what you’ve been carrying, feel understood without judgment, and be fully yourself.
