Alexandra Gilbert, LISW-S

I am a licensed independent social worker who works with children, adults and families who seek a greater understanding of how their behaviors and emotions are connected to their life experiences. I specialize in treating individuals who seek a greater understanding of how their behaviors and emotions are connected to their life experiences. I would love to help you discover how your own natural strengths can be used to foster resilience and independence.

I believe therapy is collaborative and that a relaxed, honest and, at times humorous, communication style is important to creating an authentic environment. Personal growth best happens in a compassionate and supportive atmosphere.

I use evidence-based treatments of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) including Trauma-Focused (TF-CBT), Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Areas of experience include trauma, PTSD, LGTBQIA+ specific issues, gender identity, mood disorders, cultural adversity, behavioral therapy, and intrapersonal relationships.

I would love to support you in moving life’s focus from the challenges you face. Let’s develop your personal skills and self-awareness by first highlighting your natural strengths and using those to cultivate new skills.
