Professional statement

Alexandra Steen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor located in Seattle, WA. Alexandra works with adults on issues such as ADHD, shame, anxiety, depression, and family dynamics. Her clients often experience difficulties such as low self-esteem/self-worth, trust issues, and codependency in relationships, which may all be the result of past trauma. Alexandra helps clients work through emotions like anger, sadness, and reaction to change.

In sessions, Alexandra employs a range of therapy approaches to help clients, including a focus on holistic health psychology that brings together the mind, body, and spirit. With a client-centered framework, she encourages clients to be the expert in their own lives. Clients benefit from Alexandra’s unconditional support as they talk through their challenges, with Alexandra providing perspective or reflection questions to consider. She takes a psychoanalytic and attachment-based approach so clients can learn more about their inner worlds, including how their ideas about relationships came to be.

Alexandra earned a Master’s degree from Bastyr University. She has over 10 years of experience as a counselor and enjoys working closely with clients as they engage in self-exploration and find a deeper sense of meaning in their lives.


Message to clients

Early experiences—especially those involving shame, hurt, or survival-based coping—often shape how we think about ourselves and relate to others, even when we are not fully aware of their influence. These patterns can live beneath the surface and affect emotions, relationships, and daily life. Therapy offers a supportive place to slow down, reflect, and better understand the roots of what you are feeling. Emotional distress can show up as painful feelings, stuck patterns, or behaviors that are hard to change. Together we explore these experiences with patience and curiosity. Therapy is for anyone seeking relief, greater self-awareness, and more satisfying connections with themselves and others.
