Alexandra Smith

My clients describe me as:

Warm, knowledgable, engaged, collaborative. I'm a careful listener, a clear communicator, with an easy manner that helps clients feel seen and heard.

Something to know about my approach is:

I believe everyone already has within them the capacity to heal, grow and thrive. My job is to act as a guide, helping my clients tap into their innate wisdom. With my support, clients heal themselves.

Together, we will:

Explore your inner world, and understand the parts of you that are thinking, feeling, or behaving in ways that are confusing or frustrating. You'll grow self-compassion, gain clarity, and build confidence, to lead a calmer, more connected life.

I specialize in working with people who:

Are grappling with uncertainty, high stress, or loneliness in their lives. They may be feeling intense emotions, or behaving in ways that are confusing and frustrating for them. They're seeking more connection, peace, and balance in their day-to-day,

I became a therapist because:

I went to therapy myself, and it changed my life! Now, I get to 'pay it forward' by showing up for others in the same meaningful, transformative ways.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

The Emerald Coast of Florida is a restorative paradise! Clients sometimes come visit for therapy retreats, and are renewed by the serene beauty here..

More about me and my practice:

Research shows that the relationship between client and therapist is the highest predictor of positive change (not the type of therapy itself). I'm very proud of the feedback I've received, about how supported and understood clients feel in our work.
