Positive Testimonials

Read what people have had to say about Alex & the program.

“What’s really interesting is that I’ve noticed a big difference in my trial prep. I can see a clear difference between the stress and all of the anxiety I used to carry. Of course there’s going to be stress with preparing but so much of my time was really occupied by worrying about things that were totally irrelevant. It’s interesting because I’m watching my prep partner do it “the old way” and see where she’s adding to her own situation. It feels so much easier.”​

Initially, my expectations of this program were measured, because I've taken CLE courses in prior years that deal with mental health issues, but did not find those courses very compelling.  The results of Life Outside The Law went far beyond my expectations, and gave me several tools to help manage my mental health and how I allow the legal profession to occupy my mental capital.  I now better manage and balance my mental health with my professional and personal lives to a higher degree of success. The videos were useful and informative, and most importantly, I was able to watch them on my own time and go at my own pace.  Despite how packed my schedule normally is, I found myself wanting to carve out the time needed to watch and closely pay attention to the content of each video. This program was far and away worth the cost.  The tools I gained from following this program and watching the videos are invaluable.  You cannot put a price tag on the importance of mental health, and for the immense value received from Life Outside The Law, the cost was well worth it. I don’t know if it is the case for you but I have prior therapy experiences which had varying degrees of success, but I have found it difficult in the past to commit to going to therapy sessions at a specific time and place.  Life Outside The Law allowed me to focus on the content of the videos on my own time, and provided meaningful advice to help me break the negative feedback loops in which I was constantly entrenched. I had the opportunity of working with Alex directly on a one-on-one basis to formulate a plan together that would make the biggest impact on my mental health as an attorney moving forward.  Alex is the first therapist to really "get it" when it comes to dealing with the daily challenges of the legal profession.  We spoke at length about my goals and what I hoped to gain as a result of completing the program, and Alex was always there when I had any questions or issues about the material covered and how I could best apply it to my personal and professional lives. Today, I feel like the materials provided in this program made a huge difference in my life.  I have been able to use all the materials in this program as a resource even after completing all the videos.  These materials were not created in a vacuum, and they contemplated the often complex dynamics between attorneys, their coworkers, clients and personal relationships. I use them regularly to help sort through difficult issues that I would not have thought about at the beginning of my legal career. This program has improved my life in a very significant way. To my knowledge, no other comprehensive program exists that addresses the mental health of attorneys in such a meaningful manner. I am more mindful and intentional about how I approach my mental health as an attorney. Where the legal profession has failed in addressing my mental health concerns, this program succeeds on every level, and I am grateful that such a program exists. I could not more highly recommend this program to my fellow attorneys who will undoubtedly come across similar issues throughout the course of their legal careers.
