Alexandria Parsons

About Alexandria

For the past ten years, I have worked with youth and adults from all backgrounds addressing a variety of life concerns including: depression, anxiety, boundary setting, substance use, healthy relationships, intimacy, recovery from self-criticism and perfectionism, relationship and career transitions, grief and loss, secondary trauma and caregiver burnout, and gender and sexual identity exploration.

My work with individuals is influenced by a feminist therapy framework, which means that I strive to see your concerns in context, without judging or pathologizing. I believe that the behaviours individuals struggle with often came about because they were at one point useful, and that the best path towards change lies in finding the strengths and wisdom in what you’re already doing.

In our work together, I aim to bring my real self into the counselling room and to work together to cultivate a greater kindness, compassion, and understanding of yourself and your circumstances, as you move towards wholeness and wellness.
