If you’re here, it might be because stress and worry have started to take over your daily life. Maybe your mind is constantly racing with “what ifs,” feelings of self-doubt, or uncertainty about what to do next. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. My passion is helping people find relief from anxiety and rediscover a sense of calm and confidence. We’ll start by focusing on what helps you feel more stable and grounded, so those overwhelming thoughts and feelings don’t have as much control. From there, we’ll work toward your bigger goals, whether that’s navigating relationships, healing from past experiences, or just feeling more like yourself again. I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 11 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families in private practice and university settings.

Finding the right therapist can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re curious about working together, I’d love to connect. Let’s set up a free consultation to talk through any questions you have and see if we’re the right fit.

I believe that black lives matter, love is love, science is real, women rights are human rights, I believe healthcare is a human right and not a privilege and every BODY is deserving of love/support/healing. I believe that we are made of many parts and that our overall wellness cannot exist without mental clarity. I value therapy for my own personal self, and as a result, I value and cherish the opportunity to be a part of someone else's therapy journey. I provide a trauma informed and culturally sensitive space where I utilize my trainings in EMDR, biofeedback and psychotherapy with children, teens, and adults. My areas of expertise include trauma/PTSD/Complex PTSD, anxiety, general life stress/changes, and stress management.
“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.” Abraham Maslow Perhaps you're feeling down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, aren't satisfied with how you're managing stressors, feeling burned out or depleted, or feel worn out by past experiences and difficult to bear emotions. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support and guidance from a well versed, compassionate and non-judgmental perspective. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery. In my sessions I promote improved awareness of the processes that lead to a sense of feeling stuck, skills to meaningfully improve your relationships, and transformation in the way you think and respond to your experiences. You will find a strong focus on restorative techniques used to soothe the nervous system. Teaching the skills necessary to calm our physiological as well as our cognitive responses lead to the most balanced outcomes and meaningful change.
Hi, my name is Sara. I often work with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by mental health challenges. There is something getting in the way of a more meaningful life. This can show up as an addiction, OCD, anxiety, low self-esteem, or another mental health concern. I believe that everyone has the natural drive and ability to live a fulfilling life, with the right supports and resources. My approach is rooted in the belief that therapy is not about "fixing" but about learning to reconnect with parts of ourselves that we once had to push aside. Change cannot happen without safety. I seek to create an environment where you can show up exactly as you are. We will work together to explore old patterns with compassion and curiosity and create new patterns in the present moment. We will try to understand the roadblocks to a meaningful life, while honoring that there are wisdom and pain in old patterns. Therapy is not an easy process, but my hope is that you feel empowered and challenged to meet your goals in a safe environment. You are the expert of your life, and I will go at the pace that makes sense for you and your nervous system. If you are ready, I would love the opportunity to walk alongside you on your healing journey.

I’m deeply passionate about working with teens and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or neurodivergence. I understand that navigating these challenges can feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. My clients often come to me feeling stuck and uncertain, desiring clarity and a sense of direction. They are eager to grow and find their path, yet they may not have the tools or support they need to make this vision a reality. My role is to walk alongside them with empathy and patience, helping them build confidence and resilience. Together, we work to uncover their unique strengths and develop strategies that honor their individual experiences and aspirations. My goal is to provide a supportive space where they can explore their feelings, discover their authentic selves, and move forward with hope and purpose.

If you've found your way here, something in you is already reaching toward healing. That takes courage. And I don't take that lightly. Maybe you're the one everyone else leans on. The one who keeps it together at work, at home, in every room that needs you while quietly wondering when someone is going to show up for you. Maybe you've been carrying the weight of trauma, navigating anxiety or depression, or simply running on empty for so long that you can't quite remember what full felt like. You don't have to keep doing it alone. I'm Alexandria "Alex" Cooke, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, and I created this space specifically for high achieving women, women of color, LGBTQIA+ individuals, caregivers, and teens 16+ who are ready to stop surviving and start living. I know this world firsthand and I built this practice because I believe the people who spend their lives holding space for others deserve a space of their own. Here, you are not too much. You are not broken. You are not behind. You are a whole person who has been through real things and healing is not only possible for you, it is something you are already moving toward just by being here. No judgment. No pressure. No timeline that isn't yours. You belong here. Let's begin.
