About Alexa

Alexa St. Martin is an LCSW who focuses on helping people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy challenges, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She brings a thoughtful, relational approach to therapy and emphasizes building a strong therapeutic alliance as the foundation for change. With three years of licensure as a clinical social worker in Hawaii (HI LCSW LCSW-4890), she draws on several evidence-informed perspectives including attachment-based, client-centered, and narrative-informed methods to explore patterns, meaning, and interpersonal dynamics.

Her work also addresses complex concerns such as trauma and abuse, attachment wounds, body image, gender dysphoria, and nontraditional relationship structures including polyamory and kink-aware topics. Alexa aims to collaborate with each person to understand their story and identify practical next steps.

Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to fit varied schedules, and she uses an empathic, exploratory style that helps clients clarify goals and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Integrating Relational Approaches with Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape expectations and emotional responses; it helps people explore patterns in close relationships and heal attachment wounds that contribute to anxiety, intimacy issues, or distress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and emphasizes empathy, validation, and collaboration so people can find their own solutions and increase self-understanding. Narrative Therapy examines the stories people tell about their lives and separates problems from identity, which can be useful for addressing depression, shame, and issues related to gender or body image.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works together with each client to determine which methods fit their goals and preferences. This collaborative orientation means techniques and focus may shift over time as priorities and needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work from different locations within Hawaii. These formats support consistent contact and practical problem solving while allowing clients to engage in a way that feels most comfortable to them.
