Harnessing the Power of Therapy
Hi, my name is Alex. I am a real person, a mother. I am also a therapist.
My brand of therapy is based on results and the belief that therapy should be used to make people’s lives better. When done the right way, therapy need not be complicated.
You might think of therapy as a pair of jeans… You know, the pair of jeans that fit you and make you look great in all the right places. The pants you choose, should fit you… the way you like them to… in a way that makes you feel good.
Therapy, when done the right way, works the same way. My brand of therapy is made to fit the women that I work with. It is a collaborative process (your kids might try to boss you around, your therapist shouldn’t!)
Therapy should address your needs. It should be presented in a way that makes you feel comfortable and that produces the types of results that you are looking for.
If you are looking for a one size fits all pair of jeans or a one size fits all therapist, I am not for you. Sure, I have the skills, experience and credentials to talk like a “normal” therapist, but that’s no fun… and my approach works better.
Who I work with:
I work with women. Most of my new clients have likely read lots of other profiles but haven’t found the right fit.
My typical client ranges in age from 25-45. She is likely intelligent and high functioning. Her life is good, but she’d like to make it better—round out a rough edge or two.
I work with mothers of young children as they navigate the postpartum world as it transitions into the quest to raise well rounded, thoughtful little humans who are equipped for success in a complicated, ever changing world.
I specialize in working with high achieving women who lead successful, complicated lives. I work with CEOs, Doctors, Nurses, and Women Working in Leadership positions. Sometimes this work relates to career transitions or times of change. Sometimes the therapy relates to trying to find fulfillment and peace during times of anxiety or as they try to balance more things than should seem to be possible.
About Stark Therapeutic
Stark Therapeutic is a boutique therapy practice. We specialize in helping women live better and find more fulfillment. For some this means navigating the stresses of the workplace, for others this means living mindfully while raising good humans.. I work with wives, mothers, single women, college/grad students, and executives.
Anybody can google “coping skills.” Therapy should be an individually tailored course of action that produces results.
In my view, therapy is not a supplement that you take forever. It is a dedicated course of action that is measured, applied, and directed to produce the type of results that my clients are looking for.
Therapy should work for you. When done right, therapy should make a difference that you can feel. It is an investment in yourself—an investment in your present and your future.
You define the vision of what success looks like in your life, it’s my job to forge the path to get there. For some, success is measured in balancing career achievement with family life. For some success lies in finding contentment and peace of mind.
Stark Therapeutic is friendly, collaborative, and results based. Your situation defines the goals, we forge the path.

Individual Psychotherapy Sessions (45-50 minutes)
During an individual psychotherapy session, we will work together on a 1:1 basis to uncover the root cause of your concern or barriers. We will search for patterns and develop solutions. We will not only find tactile, realistic solutions, but dig deeper to find the underlying cause. Each session builds on the previous.
