Welcome to My Therapy Practice.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in anxiety and self-esteem therapy.

My name is Alexandra Seastrunk. I’m a Licensed Marriage Therapist based in Arroyo Grande, CA, offering individual therapy both in-person and virtually.

My focus is supporting adults dealing with a combination of anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. You may consistently doubt your own worth or competence. You may feel like you're not good enough, constantly comparing yourself to others or over-focusing on your flaws. These feelings can lead to overwhelm and a sense of emptiness, and affect many areas of your life, from personal relationships to academic or career success. Low self-esteem might cause you to be overly critical of yourself, shy away from challenges, or have trouble accepting compliments or praise. I’m here to help you gain the insight and self-awareness needed to improve your confidence, and form a better relationship with yourself.

I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and am dedicated to providing a safe, respectful space for everyone, regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other aspect of identity.

Taking the step to seek help is an important one. I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation to discuss your needs and ensure I’m the right fit for you. I look forward to connecting with you.

Get to Know Me

I’m a Licensed Marriage Therapist with nine years of experience, working with individuals facing challenges like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship issues, and substance use. My background includes roles as a drug and alcohol counselor, grief therapist, and college mental health counselor, alongside private practice.

My therapeutic approach blends depth psychology with person-centered techniques, fostering an environment for insight and growth. I view myself as a guide, respecting each client's autonomy as they navigate their healing journey. The trust and commitment of my clients continue to enrich my life deeply.

I was drawn to therapy by my own transformative experiences as a client. Having been through the process, I understand the vulnerability and courage it takes. My personal therapy has grounded me, and I aim to help others find their own inner peace and guidance.

Outside of work, I love reading, film, spending time in nature, and nurturing my relationships. I’m also a cat mom with a deep affection for all animals, feeling most at home in their presence.
