Alesia Garthwait (She/Her/Hers)
LPC NCC CSTIP SACIT
Welcome!
Are you ready to understand yourself while you break cycles, and feel more grounded? Want to feel like your life is yours again?
Maybe you've been overwhelmed, and long for space to be fully seen, or a space where you can leave it all at the door without judgment.Together, we explore what’s heavy, name what’s been hidden, and make space for healing and clarity.
I’m Alesia, the proud Latina Queer woman, owner and founder of Moonlit Pathways Therapy, LLC and your future therapist!
I am a deep admirer of nature, an avid outdoor enthusiast (gardening, kayaking, hiking, camping and rock climbing are my jam!), lover of the moon & a forever student of all things psychology, human behavior and social justice.
I am dedicated to supporting individuals, groups, and community members as they navigate their life’s journey. My mission is to provide a safe, inclusive, and nurturing space where you can explore, unpack, feel, & make sense of your experiences.
In our sessions together, I strive to create a space where vulnerability is met with validation, education, authenticity & compassionate understanding. I welcome all profanity, humor and weirdness! It’s time to start being your true self; let’s start in this space as you embrace the discomfort and navigate forward!
When you’re ready, we will explore your experiences, celebrate your triumphs, practice loving the parts of the self that have been shamed away, all the while addressing any challenges that arise.
Discover how today by booking your appointment!

I’m devoted to offering therapy that’s not just a service, but a partnership and where you can actually leave session with skills to use outside of therapy. Therapy together means we acknowledge your strengths, respect your pace, and support your authentic growth.
My approach to therapy is rooted in collaboration and empowerment, informed by my clinical training, community psychology engagement and my commitment to anti-racism/anti-oppression.
I’m also passionate about creating a trauma-informed, 2SLGBTQIA+ affirming space for individuals, groups and community members regardless of sex, orientation or race. Whether you’re managing anxiety, navigating depression, exploring your identity, or healing from past trauma, my goal is to support you in finding emotional clarity, resilience, and empowerment.
