About Alexa
Alexa St. Martin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Hawaii who helps people facing relationship strain, anxiety, grief, and identity concerns. She speaks plain language and aims to make therapy feel straightforward and useful for everyday life.
Alexa focuses on understanding the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. She listens for patterns that cause pain and helps clients test new ways of relating to others.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to match each person's needs. Her approach draws on attachment-focused ideas to notice how early bonds affect current relationships. She also uses client-centered principles to keep sessions directed by whatever matters most to the client.
Narrative work is a regular part of her practice, helping people separate themselves from upsetting problems and reclaim agency. With three years of documented experience as an LCSW, Alexa brings practical skills and a steady presence to sessions. She has worked across settings in Hawaii and is familiar with the stresses people face in that region.
Alexa explains concepts in clear terms and helps clients try small experiments between sessions. People who choose her often want open conversation about intimacy, sexuality, and nontraditional relationship structures. She also supports those coping with trauma, family-of-origin issues, fertility concerns, and identity questions.
Alexa aims to help clients build clearer communication, reduce shame, and move toward more stable, satisfying relationships.

Online session options
How narrative and attachment ideas work online
Alexa frequently uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from their problems and rewrite unhelpful stories. This approach can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, body image struggles, and identity concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her work and focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current trust, closeness, and conflict in adult relationships. Client-Centered Therapy guides the tone of sessions by following the client's lead and prioritizing what matters most to them.Choosing the best approach is part of the work with the therapist. Alexa will listen to your goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what helps you feel more comfortable and effective. That collaborative process helps match methods to your needs rather than forcing a single formula.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, processing emotions between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while still working with licensed professionals.
