Alexandrea Johnson LMSW, LSW she/her

Associate Therapist

Supporting individuals and families in both community-based organizations and state and city government agencies has prepared me to work at the intersection of trauma, systemic inequity, and resilience. My experience in legal settings provides me with special insight into how to best support professionals working in high-demand environments. I often integrate somatic work to reinforce the mind-body connection. I have a particular interest and focus in trauma-informed care and therapeutic approaches that honor the whole person in order to support long-term growth. I’m thrilled to support you in your journey!
