People are at the center of everything we do. Life brings so many joys and challenges and I feel that helping people navigate those is something I am naturally drawn to. I find great joy in seeing people better understand themselves and learn to thrive. I am approachable and love to hear people’s stories. I often hear, “ I have no idea why I am telling you all this,” which makes for that authentic connection I feel like I have when I work with people.

Hi, I'm Alexis (Johnson), LMFT 14911, when it comes to helping you be your best self, I like to validate you where you are but also challenge you in ways that help you feel supported and identify areas of growth you may not have considered prior to being in therapy. I focus on identifying the thoughts that have caused you to believe things about yourself that may feel true but aren't true, that are probably causing some behavioral or self-esteem issues that prevent you from living your best life.

At times, life provides us with the opportunities that enable us to grow and accomplish. However, at times it also presents itself in the form of a challenge. These life events can take a toll on our mental health and leave us feeling despair, unmotivated, and lost. My primary goal is to help clients regain their sense of purpose, strength, and dignity. I utilize person-centered and humanistic perspective and see each client as unique and capable. I see my clients as partners who work together through a positive and strength-based approach.

My approach in working with clients is to understand what issues are of concern and then strategize a plan to address those concerns. My appoach is 'client'centered' - appreciating everyone is unique in their own life experience. It's important to understand the context in which these issues occur whether it be a family, work or social life and how these issues have impact. My approach is to work together with my clients in devising a workable and achievable 'solution'.
