Alexandria Pena

Alexandria Pena, LPC Intern, MS, understands that counseling can feel intimidating for both children and adults. Her goal is to facilitate and empower clients to find meaning and understanding in their lives, guiding them as they process, cope, and heal. As a therapist, she partners with clients on their healing journeys, recognizing that many problems often stem from past experiences. Alexandria provides a consistent, honest, and safe presence as she employs a non-directive, humanistic approach enhanced by elements of Existentialism, Jungian therapy, and Mindfulness practices, including SandTray therapy and more. Alexandria’s extensive training in Humanistic approaches, play therapy, SandTray therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT) allows her to work with clients of all ages. She is equipped to assist those grappling with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, intimacy problems, self-harm, abuse, and trauma, or even those simply seeking a supportive conversation. Passionate about supporting Highly Sensitive People and Empaths, Alexandria also enjoys working with counseling students and play therapy clients who are ready to engage in personal growth. In these uncertain times, she stands ready to offer support to anyone willing to embark on this enriching journey.
