Therapy

Feeling exhausted by self-defeating thoughts, behaviors or situations you can’t seem to break away from? A fresh perspective and understanding may help.

Imagine walking down a dark trail at night. While you lead our way, I follow just behind, but with a flashlight, illuminating important points along our path for you to see. This is the therapeutic process, and it can be a powerful vehicle to greater self-understanding, acceptance and change.

I specialize in helping people recognize and challenge undermining beliefs and patterns to find more satisfying ways to live and interact with others. I work primarily from a psychodynamic/analytic lens, integrating aspects of ERP (Exposure Response Prevention), mindfulness and existential therapy when useful.

If you’re tired of feeling stuck, reach out, and let’s begin a dialogue.  You can contact me at alex@alexrussantherapy.com or (310) 439-8251.  I have offices in West LA and West Hollywood, and offer telehealth services.
