Alex Meek

I am 30 years old from Washington State and have been in the field of Social Work since 2016, working as a therapist for the past 5 years. Nearly 10 years later, I still find myself loving the work and people I have the privilege of serving. I have worked in the foster system, applied behavior analysis, supervised visitation, adult and pediatric hospital social work, geriatrics, and with all ages of mental health. Time after time, I always find my way back to serving youth and families. Coming from a children's specialty care program, I have a deep passion for working with kiddos and caregivers. My ABA background, along with my motivational interviewing and strengths-based approach, make me eager to help families focus on ways to build connection and tackle challenges as a team. As shared before, I believe it is a privilege to be trusted by caregivers and parents, and I am honored to step in during a challenging season of life and offer guidance and support. I am CBT+ certified, and have additional training in trauma and behavior modification. I firmly believe success with this population is rooted in a family system and solution-focused approach. As a therapist and a person, I find it extremely important not to take life too seriously. While the challenges families are facing are real, I prioritize time in each session to help these kiddos crack a smile. Usually, this is done at my own expense, which I am more than okay with! I look forward to having the opportunity to work with you and your loved ones!
