Alexander Lott, Intern
Now welcoming new clients ✨
If you're carrying trauma, exploring your identity, or learning to reconnect with yourself, Alexander offers a calm, affirming space where every part of you is welcome.
Hi, I’m Alexander (he/him)! I’m a Master of Social Work student, a queer trans man, and someone who comes from a military family. I work with adults navigating ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, identity exploration, chronic stress, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and military-related experiences. My goal is to create a space where every part of you feels welcome—without judgment, shame, or pressure to "fix" yourself.
Outside of therapy, I’m a devoted cat dad, artist, writer, gamer, book lover, traveler, and nature enthusiast. Whether it's creating art, getting lost in a good story, or finding comfort in the quiet company of my cat, I believe healing often happens in the small moments that remind us life is still worth living—even on the hardest days.
My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and body-focused. I believe healing starts with feeling safe enough to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and gently explore your experiences without rushing or forcing change. My work draws from Parts Work (IFS), Somatic Experiencing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based approaches, helping clients better understand themselves, build self-compassion, and reconnect with the present moment.
When working with adults, I create a supportive, judgment-free environment where you can bring your authentic self into the room. I'm deeply curious about your story and how your life experiences have shaped who you are today. Together, we'll explore how emotions, memories, and different parts of yourself show up in your life while building practical tools to help you feel more grounded, connected, and at home in your body.
In our sessions, you might hear me ask, "What do you notice happening in your body right now?" or "Can we explore this a little more?" You may also hear me remind you that "Nothing changes if nothing changes." When it feels helpful, I'll gently ask, "Can I offer a gentle challenge to that?" I often remind clients that talking about trauma in therapy can be hard for a little while—but carrying it alone every day is much harder.
I'm currently working toward my Master of Social Work at the University of Georgia (expected May 2027) after earning my Bachelor's degree in English Literature from the University of Virginia. My work is guided by safety, compassion, curiosity, mindfulness, humor, and genuine human connection. Above all, I want clients to leave sessions feeling a little less alone than when they arrived.
Guiding vibe: All parts of you are welcome.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you've been carrying everything on your own. You don't have to have the perfect words or know exactly where to begin. We'll move at your pace, creating a space where you can feel safe, supported, and fully yourself. Healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about reconnecting with the person you've always been underneath everything you've had to carry.
