More than anything, Alex shows an intelligent understanding of issues I’ve raised. I feel confident in her ability to know where I’m at and with what I’m concerned. She cuts through a lot of the “noise”, and helps me feel justified in my decisions and feelings.

Hello!
My name is Alex Jeffery. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who is passionate about helping my clients along their healing journey. Whether you have suffered significant trauma or are just feeling stuck I’m here to help you move forward.
I earned my Bachelors Degree from Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, New York. After working at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill then abroad in China I went back to school and earned my Masters Degree from The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina. I am now a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida. I have 5+ years of experience working with survivors of sexual assault both as an advocate and a therapist. I also have significant experience working with clients with a dual diagnosis of substance use disorders and other mental health disorders.
My approach is strength based and client-centered with a cognitive-behavioral focus. I work with you to develop goals and give you tools to help reach those goals. We work together to enrich your relationships, increase insight and gain coping skills. Therapy can be rewarding and life changing. I would be honored to take the journey with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
