In this episode, Alex shares:
  • Resources for parents and students transitioning from RTC
  • The importance of holistic healing for adults and youth
  • Why it's vital for everyone to heal their inner wounds

Alex is the Founder and CEO of Aspen Growth Coaching, a remote clinical coaching platform supporting people to reintegrate into their lives and communities after residential treatment, or to avoid a placement altogether. Alex holds a bachelor’s degree in Feminist Studies and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked in clinical treatment, advocacy and coaching settings for 15 years. Her experience as a therapist and parent coach in a residential treatment setting includes leading a multidisciplinary treatment team for adolescent girls and developing a unique animal centered therapy program. Alex’s background also includes well over a decade working as a Certified Advocate for Domestic Violence Survivors and coaching clients through major life transitions.

Always pushing the limits of conventional treatment, Alex is known for encouraging her clients and her team to be curious and to look for insight and inspiration in unlikely places. Alex is of the firm belief that good treatment starts with care for the provider, and empowers her team to be radically innovative and unapologetically bold in their professional and personal lives. Outside of Aspen Growth Coaching, Alex also supports people as a values-based business and intentional living mentor and loves cultivating close relationships with people who want to change their lives.

When not focused on AGC, you can find Alex outside with her crew of five cattle dogs and four horses, or lifting weights and eating lots of plants!
