Teletherapy for Castle Pines, CO

J.Alexander Counseling was founded on the ideals of compassion, safety, empathy, empowerment, trust, and communication. Together, we will work through any stress, difficulty or challenge that brings you in. I am passionate about working with children, families and individuals from all walks of life. I believe child and family counseling is the most effective method to realizing every child's potential and every family's fulfillment.

Welcome! Do you find yourself struggling with a heaviness that you just can’t seem to shake? I understand what it feels like to be burnt out on life and have everything start to feel like it’s just “too much.” You may be asking yourself questions like, “Why doesn’t anyone else understand how hard this has been for me?” and “Why do I feel so stuck?” Maybe you feel like your relationships are struggling or your work performance is lacking. You’ve finally hit the breaking point and have started exploring ways to get the support you need...

I understand that your emotional health and relationships are important, and you deserve to receive quality assistance with these vital aspects of your life. The cornerstone of my practice is the belief in the importance of each client's perspective, their wishes and needs. I believe every client with whom I work deserves personalized care, respect, and responsiveness. This attitude helps clients feel safe opening up and trying new ways of approaching life's challenges. Whether you seek individual, couples, or family therapy (or perhaps some combination of these) I invite you to call.

Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. I believe therapy can provide meaningful exploration of your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being in order for you to navigate these issues. Whether it is stress from work, relationships, issues related to school, or anxiety from your environment, I will assist you in processing those issues while strengthening your esteem and perspective.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is one of the strongest tools we can develop for healing. As a psychotherapist, I strive to create an authentic, person-centered, non-judgmental environment for all individuals seeking help. My clients are the experts in their lives and they engage in therapy to better understand external/internal changes, personality traits, relational patterns, life changes, and past and/or present trauma. Their goals vary, but similarly each individual desires to understand themselves with greater clarity and self-compassion. Together, we look at the whole self which is not limited to just the mind.

Welcome! Maybe you've landed here hoping to find someone who will be a good fit to help you or a loved one with a particular struggle or growth area. Being caught in repeating patterns of behavior, experiencing crippling anxiety or eating and body image issues can negatively impact health and make you feel stuck and discouraged. My passion is for helping the burdened find freedom and joy and helping those who love them to feel equipped to be the most effective supports they can be.

Welcome to my psychoanalytic practice for children, adolescents, and adults. Our minds have a huge influence on how we think and feel each day; slowing down and noticing subtle aspects of ourselves with a trained analyst can provide much needed integration of powerful emotions that have not yet had a voice for expression. People can articulate emotions without feeling them, experience emotions in the body, can't find words, and unthinkingly go into action never quite feeling satisfied. Psychoanalytic work can involve the experience of play, and with kids, play will be the work. Integrating feelings and thoughts vitalizes human life.

Do you struggle with a sense of failure?...An avoidance of being yourself for fear of rejection or criticism?...Are you anxious or sad and overwhelmed?... Inner struggles often result in outward stress and confusion in relationships, parenting, work or school performance, and life enjoyment. It's time for you to step out of the shadows of self-doubt and worry. Therapy can help you feel better about yourself and your relationships, while also providing effective tools for handling challenges. You deserve a fulfilling life that includes feeling good about yourself and enjoying your important relationships.

I believe that we are each wired for connection, and through deep intimacy and secure relationships we can experience healing, change, and growth. I believe we thrive when we experience acceptance, freedom, and authenticity in the context of relationship with others. I am passionate about walking alongside individuals and families and seeing relationships and families restored, connections deepened, and personal growth take place.

Do you and your partner have communication issues? Do you and your partner have constant misunderstandings and arguments? Do you struggle with conflict resolution after a fight? Has infidelity occurred in your relationship, and now you have no idea how to navigate the complex emotions or rebuild trust? Have a significant life change such as marriage, parenthood, moving, or career challenges caused stress in your relationship? I can help; as a dedicated Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate, I am passionate about helping couples navigate the complexities of their relationship and find the path to deeper connection.

Whether you are seeking therapy to process specific life events, develop coping mechanisms to better manage stressors, feel stuck, or simply want to better yourself, I believe therapy can help. I have experience working with a wide range of diagnoses and presenting problems from PTSD, depression, and anxiety, to processing grief and loss, life changes, and interpersonal relationships. I take an approach that is client-centered and integrative. Humans are complex beings and I believe that one of the first steps to healing is fully understanding and accepting ourselves.

Even the strongest person can be challenged by difficult experiences in their past or present life. Over time, we can become so complacent and comfortable with the discomfort that it becomes our new normal, forming our views and behaviors without knowing it's even happening. Life has a way of forcing us to confront things we believe we already overcame. Remember, therapy is not about “getting over” events and issues; it’s about understanding your triggers and learning how to manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to move forward and build a fulfilling life.

My passion lies in supporting individuals of all ages, from children to adults, and the relationships they hold dear, in healing from the often unseen scars of trauma.
