Alexa St. Martin, LCSW - Therapist in Hawaii

About Alexa

Alexa St. Martin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Hawaii. She offers practical, down-to-earth support for people facing relationship stress, identity questions, grief, anxiety, and life transitions.

Her style is conversational and steady, aimed at helping clients feel heard and understood from the first meeting. She relies on approaches that focus on how people connect to themselves and others. Alexa draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on client-centered techniques that center the client's own goals.

Background and approach

She also uses narrative and Jungian-informed perspectives to help people make sense of their life stories and inner struggles. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what the person needs. Conversations tend to include mapping difficult moments, naming feelings, and trying small changes between sessions.

She pays attention to intimacy-related worries, identity and gender concerns, and a broad range of stressors such as trauma, panic, or fertility-related distress. Alexa has three years of experience as an LCSW and has worked across settings in Hawaii. She brings that local experience into her work with regional concerns and cultural context in mind.

Sessions are offered in English and she does not accept international clients. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling a time that fits the client's needs.

Approaches that translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationship patterns and emotional reactions; it helps when fear of abandonment or attachment concerns affect how people relate. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a respectful, non-directive conversation where the client's goals guide the work; this approach supports self-direction and making decisions that feel right. The Gottman Method offers concrete tools for communication and conflict management for those wanting clearer ways to handle relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods match their needs and goals. Sessions begin with a conversation about priorities and adjust over time as new issues emerge or progress is made.

Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work during life changes. Using different formats also lets people pick the way of communicating that feels most comfortable, whether they prefer talking face to face on video or checking in by text between sessions.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Gottman Method

A research-based framework for couples, focused on how partners argue, repair, and stay connected. Practical and structured, with exercises to try between sessions.
