The Visceral Impact of Our Vocation with Alex Castro Croy MA, LPC, LCA

Alex Castro Croy, MA, LPC, LAC is a bilingual, bicultural, Trauma and Addiction Counselor and Owner/Lead Clinician of Transcending Consulting Group in Denver Colorado.

As a first generation immigrant from Mexico, Alex accomplished his dream in higher education by receiving an AA in Pastoral Ministry (Dallas, Texas), Bachelor of Science in Human Services (MSU in Denver, Colorado) and MA in Community Counseling from Regis University (Denver, Co). He is continuing to pursue his MA/Ph.D. from Pacifica Graduate Institute in Jungian and Archetypal Studies.

Alex’s passion includes training, teaching, counseling, and consulting. He has been an Adjunct Professor for the Human Services Department at MSU-Denver for 10 years. He has served as an Interventionist for the Latino LGBTQ community, Drug Court Probation Officer at Denver Juvenile Court Probation (8 years), Bilingual Diversion Officer for Denver DA office (5 years), and was the owner and director of Life Recovery Centers (9 years). He has worked with a variety of clients from all walks of life and his eclectic therapeutic interventions have proven to be effective in treating trauma and addiction.

As a clinician, he’s constantly reminded to engage in the art of self-care within the 5 domains of self. He has learned in his experience as a human in the clinical role, that the human comes first, then the professional. Therefore, he has learned to honor and respect the human part of ourselves first in order to be effective in the professional role. His Depth/Jungian perspective always defaults back to soul work and soul tending (therapy).
