Alexandra Cohen, Licensed Mental Health Counselor

If you're here, you might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together. Maybe your mind feels constantly busy, you struggle to focus or follow through, or you find yourself caught in patterns you can't seem to break. You might be hard on yourself, overthinking everything, or wondering why things feel harder than they "should." If you're carrying the impact of past experiences, you may notice it showing up in your relationships, your self-worth, or the way you move through your day. You don't have to figure this out alone. I help adults navigate attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), anxiety, depression and the lasting effects of childhood trauma in a way that feels supportive, practical and genuinely human. Working with me is collaborative and tailored to you. I show up warm, intuitive and direct when needed. Together, we’ll slow things down and make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface, while also building tools to help you manage overwhelm, improve focus, regulate emotions and feel more grounded in your daily life. My approach integrates evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and trauma-informed care. More importantly, I focus on you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel both supported and gently challenged. Over time, our work can help you better understand yourself, shift patterns that no longer serve you, and create a life that feels more manageable, connected, and aligned.

My practice is fully virtual, allowing you to access therapy from the comfort and privacy of your own space. I work with adults across Massachusetts and offer individual therapy tailored to your unique needs and goals. I value creating a space that feels consistent, supportive, and grounded. Sessions are collaborative and paced in a way that feels manageable for you, while still encouraging growth and meaningful change. If you’re looking for a therapy experience that is both practical and deeper in nature, where you can build skills while also understanding yourself more fully, this may be a good fit.
