Alex Kani

Alexandra (Alex) Kani is a Learning Specialst who has experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of different settings. She is earning a B.S. in Biopsychology, Cognition, and Neuroscience from the University of Michigan, graduating in 2027. She is also involved in neuroscience research at the University of Michigan. 

In both in class and volunteering settings, she has learned and implemented skills to help others regulate their emotions and solve problems. As the eldest of three, she learned quickly how to empathize and de-escalate situations in a kind and gentle way. She aims to carry this forward in her work by creating safe and supportive spaces where others can be seen and heard as they find more effective ways to do their work. 

Alex plans pursue a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology to be able to help children, teenagers, and families. At LA MindWorks, Alex uses her past experiences to help her clients face their challenges with strategic, reasearch-driven approaches. She is committed to helping the people she works with to find their voices, their strengths, and their independence, while helping them feel supported and cared for.
