About Alexandra Layton
I am a licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families in both outpatient and residential settings. I am passionate about creating a space where young people feel seen, heard, and supported through life’s challenges. I’ve worked with a range of diagnoses, including mood and anxiety disorders, psychotic and personality disorders, autism spectrum disorder, PTSD, and ADHD. My eclectic approach integrates CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and behavioral interventions. I also assist clients in building life skills and daily living skills, always aiming to meet each individual exactly where they are.
I got my Bachelors from Xavier University in psychology and criminal justice and then received my Masters from Chatham University in Counseling Psychology. I obtained my license in the state of Pennsylvania after completing all requirements. I worked direct care at a residential treatment facility while completing my masters then moved into a clinical position helping to support clients and families through treatment. I simultaneously worked with children and adults in outpatient to continue developing clinical skills before coming to Ellie.
