You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.

MEET Petrina
PETRINA ALESY, LCSWA
Psychotherapist
Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or like you have to figure everything out on your own?
Maybe communication feels hard, your confidence has taken a hit, or you’re going through a transition that feels bigger than you expected.
When life starts to feel heavy, it can be difficult to know where to start, but you don’t have to navigate it alone.
I’m passionate about supporting teens, young adults, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I create a safe, judgment-free space where people feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we focus on building practical skills, improving communication, strengthening confidence, and creating meaningful, lasting change.
Professional Background…
My experience ranges from supporting youth in foster care and children with developmental needs, to supporting individuals who have experience abuse and trauma. I enjoy working with teens and young adults facing life transitions and everyday challenges.
My approach is supportive, direct, and tailored to each person’s needs. I meet clients where they are, while helping them move forward with clarity, confidence, and resilience.
I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from Morgan State University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate.
Personally…
I’m originally from Boston, MA. I love trying new places, spending time with friends and family, and relaxing with my comfort show, Grey’s Anatomy. Staying balanced and bringing positive energy into my work is important to me.
Let’s connect! Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a supportive space where we can work together toward real, practical change.
