Hi, I’m Alexandra McKay.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate. I work with teens, adults, and couples with concerns related to depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, trauma, life transitions, and mood-related disorders. My approach to therapy is person-centered and is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, sex therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, a highly effective and evidence-based model that focuses on understanding and transforming the emotional dynamics within relationships.

I am passionate about building strong therapeutic rapport with my clients, and understand that the foundation of successful therapy lies in creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood and supported. Feel free to get in touch today with any questions you have!

I am committed to providing the highest quality of care for my level of expertise and actively seek supervision from Lisa Coston, M.S., LMHC.

    EFT is an approach that research has demonstrated to be highly effective for treating depression, anxiety disorders, relationship problems, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
