Alexandra Onorato, LMFT

Hi, I’m Alex Onorato, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in treating eating disorders, relationship difficulties, and trauma. Whether you’re navigating painful emotions, strained connections, or a complicated relationship with your body, I strive to create a safe, trusting therapeutic environment where you can explore your experiences with honesty and curiosity. My goal is to support you in deepening your self-awareness and moving toward lasting change.

My work is rooted in the belief that many of the patterns we fall into are linked to older wounds and survival strategies. While those strategies may have once protected us, they can also keep us stuck and disconnected. In our work together, I’ll help you uncover those deeper roots, shift unhelpful cycles, and build more meaningful, fulfilling relationships. I draw from systemic and psychodynamic perspectives, along with evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I also practice from a Health at Every Size (HAES) lens, firmly believing that every person deserves to feel safe and supported in their body.

Over the years, I’ve supported clients across various levels of care, including private practice, community-based settings, and partial hospitalization/intensive outpatient programs (PHP/IOP), which brings depth and flexibility to my clinical work. I tailor treatment to meet your unique needs and goals, with compassion and collaboration at the center of everything I do. If you’re ready to explore what’s been holding you back and move toward healing and connection, I’d be honored to support you. Let’s connect and see how we can work together!
