Alexandria Rubin, LPC Intern

Intern-Sliding Scale Available

Alexandria brings warmth, curiosity, and authenticity into her work as a therapist. Her approach integrates self-awareness and emotional insight to help clients reconnect with themselves and cultivate deeper, more meaningful relationships. She believes that therapy is a collaborative journey—one where clients are invited to explore who they are, what they value, and how they want to show up in their lives and relationships.

With a style that is both reflective and grounded, Alexandria helps clients identify the patterns that leave them feeling stuck, while gently encouraging growth rooted in compassion, purpose, and integrity. She balances empathy with honest and thoughtful feedback, supporting clients in deepening their understanding of themselves and stepping into meaningful change.

Alexandria was drawn to this work through her own process of healing and rediscovery. She understands what it means to appear steady and capable on the outside while feeling disconnected within. This personal experience fuels her passion for supporting clients who may struggle silently with identity, self-worth, relationships or emotional connection.

Alexandria strives to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel seen, grounded, and empowered to pursue connection, wholeness, and lasting transformation. She helps clients make sense of their experiences, recognize unhelpful relational patterns, and develop healthier, more fulfilling ways of connecting—to themselves and to others.

Learning to Live After Loss: What Grief Taught Me About Heartbreak and Healing.

When my mom passed away in October, years ago, I was legally an adult, emotionally raw and completely unprepared. Until then, I thought “heartbreak” was something that only came from romantic loss — crying in your car to sad music over a crush who didn’t text back. But losing my mom taught me that heartbreak can also come from something much deeper: the absence of someone who helped shape your entire world.

That loss was my first crash course in grief

Wellness isn’t just about the body — it’s about the spirit too. When your faith and heart align, healing begins within.

Improving Self-Esteem: A Therapist’s Perspective on Perfectionism, People Pleasing, Positive Mindset, and Imposter Syndrome

When clients come into my office, one of the most common themes I hear is: “I just don’t feel good enough.”


It doesn’t matter if they’re high achievers, parents, students, or high-level executives; the underlying struggle is the same. Low self-esteem doesn’t discriminate, and it often shows up in very subtle ways.
