Alex Wayne, LCSW, PMH-C

Hi, I’m Alex Wayne, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Balance and Beyond Therapy!

Life is full of challenges and I know how hard it can be to find the right support when things feel overwhelming. As a therapist - and a parent of two - I understand the everyday stress of balancing family life, emotional well-being, and personal growth. My goal is to help you and/or your family find balance, connection, and clarity during times of struggle -amidst the chaos.

Whether you’re a parent seeking strategies to better connect with your kids or find a better life balance, a teen navigating the pressures of school, friendships, and identity, or a child needing support with anxiety or emotional regulation, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

At the end of each session, my hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, with a clearer sense of direction and a renewed sense of confidence in yourself. Whether it’s a fresh perspective, a new coping strategy, or simply the reassurance that you’re not alone in this, I want you to walk away feeling supported and capable of creating the change you’re looking for.

Together, we’ll build resilience, strengthen important connections, and create a path toward emotional well-being that truly fits you.
