Alexandra Afanasyeva

I work with individuals, couples and parents, including clients with mood disorders. I am Alexandra Afanasyeva, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in El Segundo, California.

My manner as a therapist is empathetic, compassionate and supportive, and I emphasize presence, inclusion and collaboration. I specialize in trauma, anxiety and depression, parenting, life transitions and couple counseling. My attention stays on the present moment and on the relationship between therapist and client.

I use evidence-based treatments. I educate clients on trauma’s effects, guide them into the present body, and help them lay out a complete account, in time order, of their traumatic experiences. I am trained in Gestalt therapy and clinical trauma work, with advanced training in complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), PTSD treatment, and trauma and phobias. I see individuals and couples by phone or through online counseling, in English or Russian.
