Alex Korsunskaya, LCSW

I am a licensed psychotherapist in San Francisco and in Berkeley offering services to people in alternative relationships and to those curious about different models of intimacy. In addition to addressing issues relating to relationships I am interested in working with you as whole person to support your healing and growth. As an experienced therapist I can work with you on issues relating to life's meaning, work, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and other life challenges.

I work with individuals, couples, triads and other configurations.

My style is warm, open-minded, collaborative and experiential. My training includes mindfulness-based, body-centered, attachment-based and psychodynamic therapy. I integrate these approaches into a holistic and personalized approach to therapy.

Some of the issues we may discuss are:

• Working with difficult emotions - jealousy, envy, fear
• How to talk to your partner about opening up your relationship
• Primary/secondary, and other relationship structures
• The meaning of commitment
• 'Coming out'
• Developing compersion
• Time management
• Effective communication skills
