Hi, I’m Alex and I have over 7 years of experience in counseling. I graduated from Texas Tech University in 2012 with a degree in Community, Family, and Addiction Studies. I then went on the the University of Denver, where I graduated with my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology in 2015.
I have worked in a variety of settings. I worked at a youth homeless shelter where I worked with young adults age 17 - 21 who faced struggles like substance abuse, single parents, teen pregnancy, disownment, and gender and sexual discrimination. I worked with children in the Texas foster care system providing trauma counseling for young children and on a specialized team that assisted with families in crisis during the reunification process. Throughout my career, I have worked with adults who faced struggles such as addiction, relocation, identity issues, relationship hardships, body image, grief and loss, and other life events that we all face from time to time.
In my own journeys, I was led to Lubbock, Texas. I enjoy spending time with my family and being outdoors, which is why I have chosen to make Lubbock my home.
