Alexa Levine, MS, LMFT
About me
Hi, I'm Alexa — a licensed therapist and work with Moms virtually throughout California. I am based in San Diego, California, and a mom of two young kids. I specialize in working with mothers who are burned out, overwhelmed, and quietly losing themselves in the relentless demands of modern motherhood. My practice, Therapy for California Moms, is built specifically for high-achieving California moms who are carrying the invisible load — the mental labor, the emotional management, the default parenting — and are ready to feel like themselves again. I work exclusively with mothers across California via telehealth, and my approach is direct, practical, and deeply validating. No fluff, no toxic positivity — just real support for the real weight of raising kids while holding everything else together. If you're a California mom who's been running on empty and wondering when it's finally your turn, I'd love to connect.

Service introduction
I'm a licensed therapist supporting California moms through burnout, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and the identity shift that comes with motherhood. My work is direct, warm, and built for high-achieving moms who are tired of holding everything together alone. I offer telehealth sessions across California — no insurance, no waitlists, just real support for the real weight of raising kids.

Ratings and reviews
As a perinatal dietitian and lactation consultant, I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with Alexa while supporting shared clients, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. She brings such a grounded, compassionate presence to the families she works with and has a deep understanding of the emotional complexities of pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. Alexa is thoughtful, real and communicates beautifully with other providers, which makes interdisciplinary care feel seamless and supportive for families and why I feel confident entrusting my clients to her practice. If you’re looking for a therapist who genuinely understands the perinatal experience and provides a safe, nurturing space during such a transformative time, Alexa is an incredible resource for our community.

I cannot recommend Alexa enough for anyone looking for therapy for pregnancy or postpartum support. She has a deep understanding of the emotional transitions that postpartum women and moms experience and creates a compassionate, supportive environment for her clients.

Alexa just gets it! She doesn’t make you feel different or bad about feeling a certain way but rather she makes one feel comforted in one’s feelings. Thank you for all your support always with your kind words and expertise.

Alexa, at Therapy for California Moms in Solana Beach, is amazing!! and I highly recommend her to any new mom, going through depression or anxiety. Postpartum is so tough, but having a therapist that gets it and specializes it is sooo helpful!

Motherhood can bring emotions no one prepares you for — from anxiety and depression to the quiet frustration often called mom rage. Alexa offers compassionate, evidence-based support for women in California navigating pregnancy and postpartum challenges. She helps mothers feel grounded, understood, and empowered to find themselves again.

As a therapist and mother myself, I often refer clients to Alexa, knowing they will be in great hands. Alexa Levine brings a refreshing authenticity and collaborative approach to her practice. She is a trusted resource for mothers looking for a true partner in navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and the many identities we hold as women and mothers in our modern day. Alexa will help you create and honor your own boundaries, communicate your needs with your partner and family, and more. I highly recommend working with Alexa.
- Alana Friedman
Highly recommend! I have worked with multiple therapists and often find that I just don't relate to them and where they're at in life right now. The fact that Alexa is also a mom of 2 young children is so helpful, because she truly gets what I'm going through as an exhausted single mom. Can't say enough great things about her!
