Navigating Life with Alicia Alessandrini, Registered Social Worker

In this week’s episode, Veronica and Amanda get into the fascinating world of neurodiversity and therapeutic techniques with their guest, Alicia Alessandrini, a registered social worker and EMDR practitioner. The three explore the concept of neurodiversity, debunk common myths surrounding mental health, and chat about everything from ADHD to relationship dynamics. Alicia gives her invaluable insights and practical advice for navigating life's challenges with compassion and resilience, and shares a bit about her own diagnosis stories, and how speaking about it in her practice helps her with her clients. The three play a game. 

 

Alicia is a registered social worker and psychotherapist who supports clients struggling with self esteem, trauma, ADHD, autism and mood. As someone who has lived experience in these areas and understands the cycles of shame and self criticism that come with mental and physical health conditions, her practice focuses on developing understanding, compassion and trust towards yourself. Alicia supports clients with accepting their strengths and imperfections, understanding connections between past and present, and exploring beliefs that are keeping clients stuck, in order to build a life that accommodates each individual's unique needs and values.
