Specializing in Chronic Overwhelm, Fatigue, Panic, and EMDR Therapy

You’re Tired of Living in Survival Mode

You look like you’re functioning, but inside everything feels overwhelming.

Worry is always humming in the background.

Your body stays tense. Even when you try to slow down, or exercise, or even just go for a walk, you feel like you're body never releases.

Your mind will not shut off. And you've tried all the meditation, journaling, and deep breathing you can stand.

Sleep is hard. It's either restless, uncomfortable, or interrupted by bad dreams and racing thoughts.

Work takes everything you have. And the idea of having a self-care routine sounds like more work.

By the time the day is over, there is nothing left for you or the people you care about.

And, to be honest, you're starting to feel like you're burning the wick at both ends.

You’ve lived through difficult experiences

Whether that was something sudden or something that lasted for years, your nervous system may still be stuck on high alert. Even when life is relatively calm, your body and brain do not feel safe. You might feel disconnected, on edge, or exhausted from constantly pushing yourself to get through the day.

If this resonates, you are not broken. Your system adapted to survive.

Trauma-Informed Therapy That Helps You Feel Safe Again

My work centers on trauma-informed care using EMDR, IFS, & somatic approaches.

I’m Alexa Hall, LCSW, a therapist and Counselor in San Diego, California.

I help adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, and disconnected after trauma learn how to feel grounded and safe again in their bodies and their lives.

Therapy with me is clear and structured.

Safely paced to support real change without forcing you to relive painful experiences. Many clients tell me they feel a sense of relief even early on, a feeling that they are not carrying everything alone anymore.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma and PTSD, including military members and first responders.

I also offer online therapy throughout California and EMDR intensives for those seeking focused, accelerated healing.

Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel supported, and begin shifting out of survival mode.
