You need a safe space to truly express yourself and work through tough emotions. Things like trauma and anxiety disrupt the nervous system, and it takes a special skill set to find your center in times of stress. I am a therapist that helps people tackle feelings of shame that often stem from dysfunctional family dynamics. If you're struggling with setting boundaries, finding balance, or navigating your mental health in general, I am here to help you work through it.

When we have been through difficult things, oftentimes we feel misunderstood, unheard, unsafe and hopeless. I do not believe that trauma makes us stronger; rather, I believe that there is something beautiful within us that brings us through the trauma. Trauma processing allows us to let go of negative beliefs about ourselves and the world; beliefs such as “I am not safe,” or “I am unlovable.” These beliefs can make us feel stuck; like having a rich and full life is not possible. As your therapist, I will work to empower you to accept all parts of self, allowing for peace from within that will trickle into all facets of life.

I believe that mental health is an important part of overall health and happiness. Each person has the ability to commit to and foster positive change in their lives. I always strive to work with each client as an individual, fostering their strengths and building healthy coping skills, insight, and empowering courage for change. I am passionate about women's health and issues. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced life changes, trauma, stressors, and/or struggled with substance use. I aim to partner with clients to understand what changes they are looking for, and walk along side them as they achieve their goals. I strongly believe that change is possible and that every human can grow to be the self they strive for. I look to provide support for those engaged in sex work, in the kink community, LGBTQI+ community, those who use substances, or have faced any discrimination or oppression. I am happy to support trans-individuals in gender affirming care and support.

Driven by a profound dedication to guiding individuals from their starting point to their desired destination, I am deeply committed to offering the vital support needed for personal growth. As an African American Christian Counselor, my primary aim is to initiate your healing journey.

My passion is helping people confront and move beyond stressful life events and self-sabotaging behaviors to achieve peace of mind and personal wellness. I specialize in working with people with disordered eating and those who want to improve their relationship with food and their body. I also work with individuals navigating anxiety, codependency, depression, relationship issues, addictions, low self-worth, and life transitions.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I have a passion for working with individuals wherever they may be in their own personal journey. I have spent much of my professional career working with children, adolescents and young adults as a therapist and an educator. I understand the challenges and rewards as they relate to school, family, social stressors and life transitions. I also work closely with families as they navigate these areas as a parent, guardian or sibling.

do you feel life is often overwhelming? Does it feel like the people around you are not listening or can't understand? Does anxiety or fear keep you from trying something? Is there a past trauma that still is impacting your day to day life? If this is you, you're among GREAT company, even though the experience is so isolating.

How long have you been hearing the call to a different way of being with yourself and the world? It might just be the quiet whispering of your heart urging you to something more. Or perhaps the whole universe is shouting that something has got to change, you can’t keep living like this. Avoiding our fear of change can keep us stuck. But your capacity to heal is only limited by your beliefs about what is possible. Genuinely transformational work is ultimately a mix of intentional effort and surprising playfulness. It’s about engaging your inner life in new and creative ways in the safe space of a trusted relationship.

I work with adults as they navigate individual, relational, and life stressors, from difficult or complex seasons of life to anxiety, depression, and sexuality/sexual health topics. Clients often start working with me during significant changes, losses, or overwhelm, and to seek momentum towards self-discovery and future goals. Stylistically, I rely on collaboration, exploration, and helping develop or reveal insights that clients can apply in their daily lives. It’s important to me that clients are empowered to make their own changes.

The world we live in today is full of burden, anxiety, worries, and pressure. Do you feel like you’re on the verge of tears, feeling the need to crash at night, or replaying memories and interactions that are causing you anxious thoughts? If so, I would love to help you. I am a mental health therapist and I work with teens and adults with a range of mental health symptoms.

Hey, I'm Alex Peacock—your growth and resilience partner! I defy the traditional therapist role, fostering a space as comfortable as your favorite hangout spot. If you're a teen or young adult navigating life's adventure, you're in the right place.

Do you wake up dreading the day ahead? What would it be like if you were excited, motivated, and happy about life again? With a busy life, caring for loved ones, and working to provide, it’s easy to get caught up in the grind and miss the joy. Have you said to yourself, “There has to be more to life than this!”? You are not alone. Taking care of responsibilities and family obligations, meeting the demands of your job, and managing stress can wear you down and leave you feeling dull and drained.

My passion is to uplift, empower, encourage, and assist individuals in exploring personal goals for self-improvement.
