About Alexa Kroon-Canning
I am an experienced and culturally competent practitioner with a great passion for working with a variety of human challenges. I am skilled and experienced in working with people living with anxiety, depression, trauma related disorders, addiction, and other complex mental health presentations. I have a particular interest in working with gender-diverse and neurodivergent populations, and provide these services to both children/youth and adults. I believe that each person’s needs are unique and use a variety of therapeutic modalities to assist people in reaching their goals. I am pragmatic and straight-forward and am consistently humbled by a person’s capacity for change and self-actualization. I pride myself on being warm, calm and non-judgmental, and all my work is grounded in client-centered philosophy.
