Alexandra Vartosu

Alexandra Vartosu

Holistic Psychotherapist, Hypnotherapist & Transformational Coach

Virtual

I help sensitive, introspective adults who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in old patterns return to a deeper sense of calm, clarity, and self-trust. I blend psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and subconscious healing to meet what lives beneath the surface, not just the symptoms. Healing, I believe, is a return to yourself, not a reinvention.
