Getting to know Michele Alexander

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years, providing counseling in both inpatient and outpatient settings to adolescents and adults. I have experience helping those dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and bipolar mood disorders. My goal is to provide a safe space where someone can be their authentic self, and feel heard and accepted. My world view is that we are all doing our current best with the accumulation of all the knowledge and skills we have learned throughout life, and that everyone has tremendous potential for continued growth. No one has all the answers, every counselor has their own limitations and struggles, but what is exciting is that each of us can always learn new insights and skills, moving forward, making steady progress and finding new balance. Frequently, coping strategies that worked for us in the past have stopped being helpful. Part of the process of counseling is learning new strategies that may provide different results. When we add new skills to our psychological toolbox, we have more flexibility to respond in new ways to stressful situations. We can self-soothe more effectively, and find space not to react in automatic and unhelpful ways. We learn more deeply about ourselves, learn our triggers, and automatic thought processes. Then, armed with that new knowledge, we can learn and practice new ways of managing our stressors. It is rewarding and challenging work, and I am excited and honored to be a part of that process!
