Student Health and Counseling: PennChart Transition

On January 9th, Student Health and Counseling transitioned to a single, unified electronic health record (EHR) by adopting PennChart, powered by Epic. To find out more about our new EHR and the new Student Health and Counseling portal, click here.

Alexandra is a postdoctoral counselor caring for students seeking support through Student Health and Counseling. Alexandra earned her Bachelor of Arts in psychology, holds a master’s degree in gender, sexuality, & women’s studies research, and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in counseling psychology. Within her research, Alexandra focuses generally on the effects of marginalization on mental health and wellbeing, which guides her in her practice as a counselor, focusing on humanistic feminist therapy. Alexandra has been working as a counselor since 2018 and joined the Penn team in 2023.

Outside of work, she likes to keep busy with a few different hobbies—wooden spoon whittling being her favorite. On an evening out, Alexandra’s favorite place to have dinner is Cry Baby Pasta.
