Alexa Aversano, LMFT, is a compassionate and experienced EMDR therapist who specializes in helping teens, adults, and LGBTQ+ folx navigate life transitions, trauma, ADHD, and identity development. Alexa provides a supportive and collaborative space where clients can explore emotional pain, develop self-awareness, and reconnect with their most authentic selves.
Trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Alexa helps clients process past experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, and uncover unhelpful patterns that may be holding them back. Her integrative, trauma-informed approach blends EMDR with depth-oriented, attachment-focused approaches, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), IFS and parts work, and the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) to support deep healing and lasting change.
Alexa is passionate about helping build emotional insight, resilience, and confidence as they navigate the challenges of growing up and discovering who they are. She brings warmth, curiosity, and authenticity to her work, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space for clients to explore, heal, and grow.
Whether working with people facing issues related to experiences of relationship and interpersonal trauma, ADHD, self-esteem issues, or navigating major life shifts—Alexa’s goal is to empower each client to heal from the past and thrive in the present.
