Alex Remy, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Alex!

I help people who've experienced injustice, hardship, grief, or mistreatment reconnect with their authentic selves. My work in inpatient and outpatient settings has given me a unique clinical perspective and a passion for helping clients find meaning and true quality of life.

My focus

I work with people new to therapy and those well-versed in the process. If you've experienced trauma, hardship, or loss and want to understand how these experiences have shaped who you are today, we can work together to find your unique path to healing.

My approach

I emphasize a warm, authentic therapeutic relationship that is collaborative, empowering, and tailored to your needs. I draw from somatic therapy, existential therapy, coherence therapy, psychodynamic therapy, DBT, and motivational interviewing. My approach is trauma-informed, prioritizing your voice, boundaries, and emotional safety.

My communication style

I lead with warmth and curiosity, creating a therapeutic environment that feels soothing, safe, and open. I listen attentively and reflect what you share to ensure accurate understanding. I may offer guided exercises in and outside sessions, gently drawing your attention to themes or patterns and tracing present-day behaviors to their roots.

My journey to mental healthcare

I find it profoundly fulfilling to help others connect with their most authentic selves, particularly when they've experienced injustice, hardship, grief, or mistreatment that has left them feeling disconnected from their own voice and identity. You deserve to live a meaningful life today, now, in this very moment.

My goals for you

My focus is helping you deeply know yourself and others, lighten the weight of your lived experiences, and connect to your most authentic self.

Our first session

Our first session will focus on getting to know you better. We'll cover your living circumstances, relationships, upbringing, health history, major events or distress, strengths and coping, and how these affect you daily. It will be a guided conversation, and my role is to make it feel comfortable and safe.
