Professional statement

Alexa Rillman, LCSW is a New York based psychotherapist that offers individual therapy to adults and adolescents who are experiencing concerns related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and LGBTQIA+ issues. Her aim is to create a therapeutic environment that allows for curiosity and exploration of what keeps you stuck right now and what can help move you forward. She also has a particular interest in how cultural and societal factors impact that way we see ourselves and the challenges we face.

Her style is warm, collaborative, integrative, and client centered. She is interested in uncovering the patterns and narratives from your past and/or present that impact you currently. Identifying and understanding these patterns helps to create space to make new choices and ways of thinking.

Alexa is here to foster a compassionate, accepting, and non-judgmental environment for you to really listen and engage with all parts of yourself. Whether you are currently struggling with a particular challenge at this moment or interested in self-reflection, she'll meet you where you're at. Let's help you to show up as your most authentic self.
