Alexandra utilizes her formal counseling psychology education, behavioral health coaching, and yoga training to help others reach their emotional and physical health goals. She is passionate about making behavioral health coaching accessible to all who might otherwise be intimidated about starting the journey. Drawing from her own chronic illness journey, her work and study in mental health, and drive to empower all communities, Alexandra aims to cultivate a true sense of safety and belonging in her sessions.
