Alejandro Pina
Associate Marriage and Family Therapist - AMFT
Talking about yourself can be really hard, it can stress me out too. I like to make sessions as easy-going as possible.
If you feel like a burden, can’t share things with the people in your life, or you usually keep to yourself, my practice can support you.
My background includes three years as a crisis counselor at a national suicide hotline. I’ve learned that a common theme among those in pain is not feeling understood or seen in the world.I work with teenagers, college students, millennials, artists, entertainment professionals, LGBTQ community, couples, families, low-income, and immigrant populations.
For Families:
One of the hardest things about being a teenager is not feeling understood by anyone in their world. Parents feel guilty when they see their child struggling and don’t know what to do.
As a therapist, I offer a neutral space for your teen to be heard. I will help your child learn how to articulate thoughts and feelings so that your family can have a better understanding and plan for action.
