Anita Alex
Hi There! My name is Anita Alex and I am a Licensed Clinical Art Therapist (ATR, LCPAT).
My therapy work has included helping children and adults with anxiety, depression, life transitions, goal setting, and more. I also specialize in helping children/adults with navigating and balancing traditions and culture in the South Asian American/immigrant community.
I take a person-centered approach in which I provide an open, calm, and unbiased environment while I help my clients lead me in their own journey in understanding themselves and their relationship with others. Other modalities used in my sessions are CBT, Art Therapy, Psychodynamic, and more. As your therapist, my aim is to help you design a plan, build the skills, and process and resolve emotional complexities to achieve your goals of living your best life.
Being a part of the South Asian community, I grew up with the subject of mental health as sort of a taboo topic. Even going into the fields of arts was frowned upon. Yet, here I am, standing today as an Art Therapist, overpowering both of those ideals. My goal is to provide you with the same empowerment and support you in finding your own healing.
Clinical Degree: Licensed Clinical Professional Art Therapist (LCPAT) and Registered Art Therapist (ATR).
