Trailstone Therapy

Welcome

Hi, I’m Alexa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (Lic#131070) offering virtual therapy throughout California and in-person counseling in San Diego. I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma, reduce anxiety, and reconnect with themselves in a way that feels safe, grounded, and sustainable.

As a San Diego counselor, my work focuses on creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your story, build trust in yourself, and find practical tools for lasting change. Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, or major life transitions, I tailor therapy to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches like EMDR, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, CBT, and DBT.

I offer weekly and intensive therapy sessions to support deeper healing at your own pace. If you’re looking for a counselor in San Diego or prefer the flexibility of telehealth, I’m here to help you feel more at home in your mind and body.

Let’s take the next step together. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Support is here.

Effective Counseling in San Diego

At Trailstone Therapy, I integrate evidence-based treatment modalities to address trauma, anxiety, depression, phobias, identity exploration, and life transitions. As a San Diego counselor, I don’t rely on “just talk therapy.” I use approaches that are both backed by research and informed by real, lived experience because therapy should help you feel better quickly and create change that lasts.

My approach combines EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for trauma and PTSD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shift unhelpful thought patterns, mindfulness-based therapy to build present-moment awareness, somatic-based techniques to release stored stress in the body, and psychodynamic/client-centered therapy to understand how past experiences shape your present.

Whether you’re seeking counseling in San Diego or prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions anywhere in California, we’ll work together to create a collaborative, personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, and pace. As your counselor in San Diego, my goal is to help you feel grounded, clear, and empowered, not years from now, but as soon as possible, with tools and strategies that support sustainable healing and lasting growth.
