Meet Alexandria Butt
Hi all! I am so excited to be on this journey with you.
​
I believe everyone can benefit from therapy however, the key to success is dependent on the therapeutic relationship. Here is a bit about me to see if I may be a good fit for you. I am a woman, wife, and mother. I am a family oriented individual and passionate about helping others in my professional life. I am continuously learning and growing as an individual and have found many ways to cope with my life transitions and challenges. It has been important for me to adapt my coping strategies and to use self reflection to ensure I am taking care of my holistic health and wellbeing. I have worked in Mental Health and Community Health for over 10 years.
​
I love working with people from various cultural, ethnical, and diverse backgrounds. I have worked with individuals who have a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Bi-Polar Disorder, as well as, assisting their caregivers. You do not need a diagnosis to work with me and sometimes the disorder is not as relevant to what is happening now in your life. I do not believe you are defined by your disorder - you are YOU!
​
I am an eclectic therapist which means I use an array of interventions to meet your goals. Interventions and modalities I use are: ACT, CBT, CPT, DBT, Mindfulness, MI, Trauma-Focused, and Client Centered. I am a lifelong learner therefore, these approaches may change over time with the research that is available.
