Find a Therapist in Richmond, Virginia

“I was struggling with grief, depression, anxiety, mom issues, body dysmorphia... You name it. Working with Alex is almost indescribable. I have felt comfortable and free of judgment since day one. I know I can feel comfortable saying anything, laughing, joking, crying... truly anything! I don't even want to think about what my life would be like if I had never met Alex! I would be more of a mess than I already was. Finding Alex and starting our work together started at a critical time in my life and it has made all the difference in the way I am able to interact with my family during some very difficult times. I am most proud of the work that came out of our EMDR sessions. I am amazed at how it helped me to see myself differently and give myself a ton of grace. I have also learned a lot about myself and how to love and accept myself.”

“Simply put, Alex Schrum saved my life. Prior to working with her, I had worked with several different therapists but still continued to struggle with severe anxiety, depression, and overall dissatisfaction with my own life. On my very worst day, I was living with a constant pit in my stomach, intense fear of failure, and the overwhelming feeling that I was not worthy of a life of happiness. It consumed me, ultimately causing significant issues in my relationship, professional career, and general quality of life. I was desperate for a change and that's when I found Alex. After our first meeting, I knew she was the right fit for my healing journey”
