Alexandra Brink

Alexandra Brink brings a hopeful, practical approach to therapy, emphasizing that reaching out is a meaningful first step toward addressing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting challenges, family conflicts, anger management, self-esteem concerns, depression, and coping with life changes.

She earned a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Therapy from Regent University and became a licensed professional counselor in 2014. She holds professional counseling licenses in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey and has ten years of clinical experience practicing in Pennsylvania.

Her academic focus in Marriage and Family Studies shaped the early portion of her career, during which she worked primarily with children experiencing mood, behavior, or developmental disorders. In the more recent half of her career she has specialized in treating adults with anxiety alongside a range of other concerns. When working with parents and with children she frequently draws on behavior therapy; with adults her work is typically person-centered and solution-focused. She is comfortable integrating techniques from multiple counseling modalities to meet each person’s needs.

For Alexandra, progress depends on a strong therapeutic relationship - one where clients feel comfortable and genuinely understood. She also takes a holistic view, considering body, mind, and soul, and believes that attention to physical health and spiritual concerns can influence therapeutic outcomes.

Outside of practice she works part-time and primarily stays at home with her three children. She has been married for 11 years and lives in the Pittsburgh, PA area. Painting has become a recent personal interest, and she has managed chronic illness for 15 years, so she is familiar with how grief, illness, and major life changes can affect a person. Strong supports have helped her through those experiences, and she aims to offer that additional support to clients as they work toward their goals.
