I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist committed to helping individuals pinpoint and solve emotional, mental and interpersonal problems. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs that interfere with your daily life. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals. I have 9 years of experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction. Under the umbrella of a humanistic, existential, and cognitive behavior-based approach, modalities used in treatment include Client Centered Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, CBT, and mindfulness-based interventions. If you’re struggling to cope with anxiety, trauma, depression or addiction, I can help you navigate these struggles, and together find a path forward.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I met Alexis during the darkest & longest depressive episode of my life. She has been instrumental in helping me see the light at the end of the tunnel. Alexis is very non-judgmental in her approach & extremely down to earth & warm. She is a fantastic listener & wonderful at "meeting where you are". She will challenge you in gentle ways & provide you with clear guidance without any agenda. She is the first therapist I've wanted to work with long-term & I'm so grateful to have found her here!
Amazing therapist

Alexis is great. I couldn't have found a better person to help me with what I'm working on, and I look forward to the work we do.
Alexis is great. She listens well and gives great advice! I'd recommend her to anyone hands down!
Alexis is my therapist. It took less than one session for me to realize this. I enjoy every session, regardless of how deep the dive. There is always a sense of progress and expanded self awareness. I couldn't ask for more, except maybe a tip option.
Alexis is very compassionate
