About Nicolle Alex, M.A, LMFT
Hi, my name is Nicolle Alex, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and the co-founder of EleMental Health CA, a licensed residential treatment center for women located in Thousand Oaks, California.
With over a decade of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families, I create a safe, nurturing environment where healing, emotional growth, and self-worth flourish.
Whether you’re here seeking individual therapy, couples counseling, or a higher level of care, I am dedicated to helping both men and women find peace of mind, personal fulfillment, and a deeper sense of purpose. My approach is tailored to help you navigate challenges, build resilience, and reclaim your mental and emotional well-being at every stage of life.
I specialize in:
Trauma Recovery & PTSD Therapy – Helping women heal from past trauma, emotional wounds, and distressing life experiences.
Anxiety & Compulsive Worry Management – Providing tools to manage stress, chronic worry, panic attacks, and overwhelm.
Relationship Therapy – Fostering healthy connections with partners, family, and self.
Life Transitions & Personal Growth – Supporting you through career changes, parenthood, divorce, and midlife transitions.
I am guided by the belief that our greatest lessons often emerge from our darkest moments—and that with the right support, healing and transformation are possible.

My Approach to Therapy – Compassionate, Collaborative, and Empowering
In my practice, I take a compassionate, non-judgmental approach, creating a safe space where you can openly explore your challenges. Together, we’ll work to:
Identify and overcome obstacles
Build resilience and develop healthy coping strategies
Foster emotional growth and self-awareness
Create lasting, meaningful change in your life
I believe that genuine connection and trust are the foundations of successful therapy. That’s why I offer a free initial phone consultation—an opportunity for us to connect, discuss your needs, and ensure we’re the right fit for one another.
Advocating for Mental Health Awareness
Beyond my therapy practice, I am a passionate advocate for mental health awareness. I frequently speak at conferences, contribute to mental health publications, and engage in community initiatives that promote mental well-being for women.
HELPING YOU LIVE AUTHENTICALLY &
BUILD CONNECTIONS THAT TRULY MATTER.
Why I Do This Work
Therapy is more than just a profession for me—it’s a calling. My passion for helping women heal, grow, and rediscover their inner strength comes from a deep belief that we all have the power to transform our lives.
In this video, I share my journey, my philosophy, and why I’m committed to providing trauma-informed, compassionate therapy for women navigating anxiety, trauma recovery, relationship challenges, and personal growth.
If you’re ready to start your own path to healing, I invite you to schedule a free consultation today.
