Alexandra Browne, M.A., L.P.C.

I provide integrative psychotherapy informed by psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness-based practices, and cognitive approaches. My work focuses on helping clients better understand emotional patterns, relationships, identity, and trauma-related experiences.

I commonly work with concerns including anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, relationship difficulties, depression, emotional overwhelm, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

Yes. I provide both in-person therapy in downtown Chicago and telehealth therapy for adults located throughout Illinois.

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on understanding how past experiences, unconscious patterns, emotions, and relationships influence present-day struggles and emotional distress. This approach can help clients develop deeper self-awareness and lasting emotional growth.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a therapy approach that helps people understand the different “parts” of themselves that may hold pain, fear, shame, or protective roles. IFS encourages self-compassion and healthier relationships with internal experiences.

Yes. I work with adults navigating trauma and difficult emotional experiences in a thoughtful, collaborative, and compassionate way. Therapy may include understanding emotional responses, coping patterns, and the long-term impact of past experiences.

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any questions or concerns you may have about the process. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, supported, and understood from the beginning.

Yes. I accept BCBS PPO, Aetna PPO, Cigna PPO, BCBS Community, Meridian, and Medicaid plans. If you have questions about coverage, our team can help you understand your options when you reach out.

Availability can vary, but many clients are able to schedule an initial consultation within a short timeframe. Reaching out through our Contact Us page is the fastest way to get started.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can help provide clarity, support, and direction. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting—part of the process is exploring what you need and what might help.
