Mental Health Counselor

Hello! I’m Alexa Knowlton, a Masters Level Mental Health Counselor who provides therapy services at our Kendall Square clinic. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults primarily in outpatient community settings. I hope to create a welcoming and comfortable space for all to express their current experiences. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and I am here to listen, provide support, and reflect anything I may notice from an outside perspective. I focus on strengths-based, person-centered approaches to help you navigate personal experiences. Therapy looks different for everyone, and I want to find the best way to support you through this experience!

I have experience working with ADHD, ASD, Anxiety, Depression, Disordered Eating, PTSD, Stress Management, Coping Skills, and Emotional Dysregulation. My goal is to find what works best for each individual person, utilize their preferred form of communication, and dedicate our time together to topics, areas, and experiences you want/need to focus on!

Reaching out for support is not a sign of weakness, but an amazing step in supporting yourself. There is so much going on the world and in our individual lives, it’s a lot for anyone to handle! If this resonates with you, I would be honored to hear from you and discuss what your mental health journey looks like moving forward. I am here to support you!
