Ron Alexander, MHC-I
Ron Alexander (he/him) is a Mental Health Counseling intern at Sycamore Haven Counseling, PLLC in New York. He comes to the counseling room with over a decade of experience in higher education, student conduct, and residence life, where he has walked alongside college students and young adults navigating crisis, transition, and identity questions. Ron is currently completing his M.S. in Mental Health Counseling at Pace University and has a special interest in working with adolescents, college students, LGBTQIA+ clients, people involved in conduct/disciplinary processes, and adults exploring recovery, grief, and life transitions.
Ron’s therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. He integrates person-centered, relational, and CBT-informed approaches with an eye toward culture, power, and lived experience. In sessions, Ron focuses on building a strong, nonjudgmental relationship where clients can slow down, notice patterns, and experiment with new ways of coping, relating, and making meaning. He believes people are more than their worst day or their hardest moment, and he works to balance accountability with deep compassion.
Outside the therapy room, Ron enjoys playing in a local LGBTQ+ flag football league, reading true crime and psychology books, exploring new coffee shops, and spending time with friends and family.
