    About

    Rebecca Alexander is a psychodynamic psychotherapist with over two decades of experience working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. Based in Manhattan, she maintains a private practice where she combines a warm, attuned therapeutic relationship with evidence-based methods to support clients through life’s most complex emotional challenges. Certified in Attachment-Focused EMDR (AF-EMDR) through the Parnell Institute, Rebecca specializes in trauma treatment, healing attachment wounds, and building emotional resilience. Her practice is inclusive and affirming, welcoming people of all backgrounds, identities, and abilities. Rebecca’s therapeutic style is interactive, collaborative, and strengths-based. Drawing on her extensive training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and AF-EMDR, she tailors each treatment plan to the unique needs of the individual. With compassion, insight, and curiosity, she helps clients deepen self-understanding, challenge limiting beliefs, and cultivate self-compassion and authenticity. In addition to her clinical work, Rebecca is an educator and advocate—offering supervision, teaching continuing education courses, and serving on boards that promote accessibility for mental health services.
