Alexandra Pradas, LICSW

EMDR Certified Trauma Therapist

To embrace new beginnings, we must let go of what is holding us back.

I believe a positive therapeutic relationship can lead to profound and lasting change. I specialize in providing EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) to help individuals find healing from trauma or other distressing life events.

All people are deserving of the space to share their story.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in MA and NH. I enjoy working with individuals who have a history of trauma and helping them to find healing and emotional growth. My professional journey is deeply rooted in education and community mental health. This foundation has profoundly shaped my approach to therapy, emphasizing the importance of understanding individuals within their broader social contexts. As a social worker I value collaboration with schools, state agencies and community supports to build understanding and empathy for my clients.

I am flexible and I use a systemic perspective and holistic approach to my work. I have received extensive training in suicide prevention and postvention, suicide loss bereavement, and mental health crisis response. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based trauma treatment.

Why EMDR?

Our brains have a natural way to recover from stress. When our experiences are too overwhelming or disturbing, that natural path to recovery can be disrupted. EMDR therapy helps the brain process difficult memories, allowing for healing and resolution to occur.
