Alessandra has extensive experience supporting clients navigating complex trauma, post-traumatic stress, and the lasting effects of crisis. From her work at High Point Treatment Center and Bedrock Recovery Center, she’s helped individuals rebuild emotional safety after experiences of violence, loss, or instability.

Rooted in her identity as a second-generation Haitian woman, Alessandra provides affirming therapy for clients navigating cultural identity, generational trauma, and belonging. Fluent in Haitian Creole, she holds space for immigrant and first-generation experiences often overlooked in mainstream therapy. Her work integrates cultural pride, resilience, and intergenerational healing creating room for clients to reconnect with heritage while releasing patterns of survival and self-silencing.

With clinical roles across community mental-health, hospital, and private-practice settings, Alessandra has supported hundreds of clients living with anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders. She draws on evidence-based interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques to reduce symptoms and restore balance. Her sessions offer warmth, structure, and emotional safety—helping clients identify root causes, practice regulation, and rediscover joy in daily life.

As a group fitness instructor and weight-loss champion, Alessandra blends her mental-health expertise with a deep understanding of embodiment and self-acceptance. She helps clients rebuild confidence in their bodies through compassion, movement, and mindful self-care; especially within communities where cultural or racialized beauty standards can distort self-image. Her integrative style honors both the psychological and physical aspects of healing, encouraging clients to feel strong, empowered, and at home in their own skin.

Alessandra supports clients through major life shifts—career changes, parenthood, grief, identity transitions, and relationship challenges; using a collaborative, strengths-based approach. Drawing from her experience providing individual, couples, and family counseling across inpatient, outpatient, and community settings, she helps clients navigate emotional crossroads with clarity and care. Whether you’re rebuilding after a breakup, healing from divorce, or seeking to strengthen communication within a partnership, Alessandra’s work emphasizes self-awareness, boundary setting, and emotional restoration. Her approach invites clients to rediscover confidence, redefine love on their own terms, and move forward with authenticity and peace.
