Welcome!
I’m Alex! For over two decades I have helped people return to their own inner wisdom and source of greatest knowledge. How did that begin? By first engaging in my own healing and following my insatiable curiosity.
I am extremely empathic and sensitive to energy. But when I was younger, I didn’t know what was happening. I just thought I was “too sensitive” and tried to go on about my life. But burying and denying my sensitivity turned much of my younger life into a mess. I was constantly anxious, emotionally isolated, and fearful. My love life was a five-alarm disaster and I tried to mute the sensitivity with drama, technology, disordered eating and exercise, unhealthy intimacy, and lots of cigarettes. Over many years, I began to realize that none of these coping strategies were working. I was still anxious, emotionally isolated, and fearful. And after a nuclear breakup that brought me to my knees, I made a pledge to myself that I would get to the root of what was going on.
Little by little I began to find techniques, ideas, and people who could help me process and release the real causes of my pain. I found my way to yoga, meditation, psychotherapy, and energy work. I brought the sensitive empath out of the closet, I embraced him, and I loved him. I began to understand that we are all interwoven with each other in a vast fabric of consciousness and energy, and that we can learn to manage and control our connections to that fabric so it is less overwhelming.
I can tell you for sure I don’t have it all figured out. I’m still growing, stumbling, and doing my best to be more of myself. But I am no longer that scared, withdrawn, and anxious young man. I revel in life, welcome it, and wake up each day with a sense of awe and reverence for this incredible cosmos. I have used psychotherapy and energy healing to release the old patterns of drama and their causes. I found and married the love of my life. I have grown to love my body and treat it with respect and care. I found work that is deeply fulfilling and rewarding. It all came from embracing all of who I am and getting rid of the immense amount of energetic and emotional baggage I was carrying.
And, you can do that too.
If you’ve read this far, regardless of whether we ever work together, please know this:
Pure goodness is your essence. It’s your basis. You are made of love that is so pure it has no opposite. You are good, and you are right. There are no hoops to jump through, no tests to undergo, and no worthiness to prove. You’re just a good being made of love. If I can help you uncover that goodness, whether professionally by helping you clear the gunk that’s covering it or just by reading this paragraph, then my work is done.
