Individual

Psychotherapy

In individual therapy, you can expect a safe, compassionate, and confidential space designed to help you slow down, reflect, and better understand yourself. Alexandria provides a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your emotions, thoughts, and experiences at your own pace. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship stress, or life transitions, her role is to help you uncover the roots of your challenges and build the tools needed for lasting change.

Through a blend of evidence-based approaches—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for restructuring unhelpful thought patterns, mindfulness-based techniques for grounding and emotional regulation, and psychodynamic exploration for understanding how past experiences shape current behaviors—Alexandria tailors each session to your unique needs and goals. Together, you’ll work toward developing self-awareness, strengthening emotional resilience, and learning healthier ways to cope with life’s challenges. Her approach emphasizes empowerment, helping you reconnect with your values, rediscover your strengths, and move toward healing, growth, and a greater sense of peace and balance in your everyday life.

Couples

Therapy

In couples therapy, you can expect a safe, supportive, and structured environment where both partners are encouraged to share openly and honestly without fear of judgment. Alexandria’s approach centers on fostering understanding, empathy, and emotional connection between partners. She helps couples uncover the underlying issues that fuel conflict—whether it’s communication breakdowns, unmet needs, resentment, or external stressors—and guides them toward more effective ways of relating to each other. Through evidence-based techniques drawn from emotionally focused therapy (EFT), cognitive-behavioral approaches, and systemic family theory, she helps couples recognize their patterns, learn to express emotions constructively, and rebuild trust and intimacy.

Each session is tailored to the couple’s unique dynamic, goals, and stage of relationship. Whether you’re navigating parenthood, coping with infertility, rebuilding after betrayal, or simply seeking to strengthen your bond, Alexandria provides practical tools and insight to help you communicate more clearly, resolve conflict with compassion, and reconnect as a team. The goal is not just to solve problems, but to create a deeper, more resilient partnership built on mutual respect, understanding, and emotional safety.

Prenatal + Postpartum Therapy

Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) therapy is a specialized form of support that Alexandria is certified in, and is designed to help individuals and families navigate the emotional, physical, and relational changes that occur throughout the perinatal period — from preconception and fertility challenges to pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood.

Rooted in evidence-based approaches, PMH-C therapy provides a safe, compassionate space to process experiences such as anxiety, depression, birth trauma, loss, identity shifts, and relationship changes. It focuses on helping clients build coping tools, strengthen emotional resilience, and restore connection to themselves and their loved ones.

Alexandria understand the profound impact this life stage can have on both mothers and partners and is uniquely trained to support healing, adjustment, and growth during one of life’s most transformative — and often vulnerable — seasons.

My Approach

My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and authenticity. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted exactly as you are. Therapy is not about fixing you — it’s about helping you understand yourself more deeply, uncover the “why” behind your patterns, and create meaningful change from the inside out.

Every person’s story is unique, so I tailor my work to meet your individual needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based approaches that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Mindfulness, and Attachment-Based and Psychodynamic techniques.

Whether we’re working together individually or as a couple, my goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen emotional awareness, and build the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and compassion. I approach therapy through a holistic and relational lens—acknowledging the profound connection between mind and body, past and present, and self and others. You can expect warmth, curiosity, and a genuine partnership as we explore your experiences, identify patterns, and work toward healing.

Above all, I believe that therapy should be a place where you can exhale, where your story matters, and where you can reconnect with your strength and potential. My mission is to empower you to move toward a life that feels more balanced, grounded, and authentically yours.

About me

I’m Alexandria Hershman, LPC, PMH-C — a Licensed Professional Counselor and Perinatal Mental Health Certified therapist with over 10 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s most meaningful and challenging transitions. My work is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and the belief that healing begins when we feel seen, supported, and understood.

Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients across all stages of life — from those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use, to new parents navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and identity shifts. My passion for perinatal mental health stems from witnessing how profoundly these experiences can shape individuals and families — and how powerful therapy can be in fostering resilience, connection, and hope.

In my sessions, I take a holistic and collaborative approach, drawing from evidence-based therapies such as CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, while tailoring treatment to each client’s unique story and goals. Whether we’re working through past wounds, relationship challenges, or the emotional changes that come with parenthood, my goal is to create a safe, compassionate space for growth and healing.

Outside of the therapy room, I’m also the co-founder and therapy director of Move to Heal — a nonprofit that combines mental health, movement, and community support to make healing accessible to everyone.

Getting Help

Reaching out for help can be one of the hardest — and most courageous — steps you’ll ever take. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or the emotional ups and downs of fertility and postpartum life, you don’t have to face it alone.

Therapy offers a safe, nonjudgmental space to pause, breathe, and begin the process of healing. Together, we’ll uncover what’s been holding you back, build practical coping tools, and help you reconnect with your sense of strength and self. Healing isn’t about having it all figured out — it’s about allowing yourself to be supported along the way.
