About Alexander
Alexander "Alex" Dannin offers a practical, person-focused approach that centers on the client’s own experience. He believes people naturally move toward balance and worthiness, and he helps them reconnect with that state when life feels off. Alex uses straightforward conversation and concrete steps to address problems that feel overwhelming.
He listens for the beliefs that underlie strong emotions like anger, sadness, or fear. Then he works with clients to change thoughts, behaviors, and routines in ways that reduce distress. Sessions are grounded in what the client wants to change next, not in fitting someone to a textbook method.
Alex draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to shape sessions. He adapts these approaches to each person’s needs and goals, combining them with personal insight tools when helpful. This mix is often used for concerns such as self-esteem, relationships, anxiety, and coping with life changes.
With 10 years of clinical experience and a California LMFT credential, he brings both clinical and life experience to the work. His background includes previous careers in IT and finance, which inform a practical problem-solving style. He also notes using Human Design ideas at times to highlight personal strengths.
People commonly seek his help for issues like depression, career stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
