About Alex Franzius
MSW, RSW · Therapist in Kelowna, BC & Online Across British Columbia
I'm a Registered Social Worker with a Master of Clinical Social Work from the University of British Columbia and a member in good standing of the BC College of Social Workers. My practice focuses on ADHD, autism (including AuDHD), and trauma recovery, and I also work with couples and perinatal mental health. I work from a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming approach tailored to what you actually need.
My Background and Training
I am a Registered Social Worker with a Master of Clinical Social Work from the University of British Columbia. My education also includes a Bachelor's degree with honours in Psychology and advanced training in ADHD, autism, trauma, and perinatal/postpartum mental health.
For the past seven years, I've had the privilege of working in the mental health field, supporting youth, adults, couples, and parents navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, and more.
A Little Bit About Me
When I'm not in the therapy room, you can usually find me enjoying the beautiful lakes and mountains of BC – I was born here and can't imagine living anywhere else. I'm a passionate reader who always keeps a book closeby, and my home is joyfully ruled by two mischievous cats.
