Alexandra (Ally) Klerer

She works effectively with parents, offering practical strategies and helping families move from concern to real change in their children's lives. Ally has extensive experience supporting neurodivergent children and teens, including those with autism and ADHD. She is graduating with a Master of Social Work from Yeshiva University's Wurzweiler School of Social Work (coursework completed, awaiting diploma).

Therapeutic Approach and Philosophy​

Ally's work is grounded in a client-centered approach that honours each child's unique strengths, experiences, and ways of seeing the world. She meets children and teens where they are, often through play, conversation, and hands-on strategies, and builds the kind of trust that makes real growth possible. Ally pays close attention to emotional experiences, relational patterns, and the skills a child is still developing. She then translates that understanding into practical tools for the child and their parents. She believes therapy works best when children feel safe and parents feel equipped, so that progress continues well beyond the session.​

Personal Journey​

Ally has always been the person children gravitate toward. Long before she began her clinical training, she found herself drawn to the kids who were struggling to be understood, and to the families working hard to support them. That pull led her to social work. What she loves most about this work is the moment a child feels truly seen, and a parent walks away with a new way of understanding their child.
