I am constantly amazed at the resilience of the human spirit, despite all we encounter in life. My hope is to provide you support and a therapeutic relationship within our sessions that helps you better understand yourself and your relationships outside of therapy. I accept everyone: all faiths, sexual orientations, gender identities, all races and kinks.

Life can be hard. I know from personal experience. I have been a counselor for over twenty years and a client before that. Counseling provides individuals a safe place to work on making personal changes. I teach skills for overcoming anxiety disorders, such as panic attacks and obsessive compulsive behaviors, as well as working with chronic pain, depression and trauma.

In my work, I believe in partnering with each client to understand their unique experiences and point of view. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space to clients of all backgrounds in which we can explore issues of the past and present, as well as identifying personal strengths, values, and goals. In order to support the therapeutic process, I focus on exploring personal narratives, strengthening systems of support, and developing new communication and coping skills.

I hold a belief that we are all doing the very best we can with the skills and the knowledge that we have. I also hold a belief that sometimes we need support to step into healthier skills and gain new knowledge to grow and to heal. Being human is messy, imperfection is our only option, and wow that can be hard to sit with sometimes. Whether you are searching for support because you are deep in struggle or you are searching for support because you are interested in growing as a human, I am here for it! If this is your first interaction with therapy OR you've tried therapy and want to give it another go, you are so welcome here!

The decision to come to therapy can be an intimidating one. You know your experiences and how they impacted you, but what’s next? Experiencing issues with self-worth, self-esteem, strained relationships, or questioning your identity can be overwhelming and exhausting, leading to lack of confidence, uncertainty, indecision, and feeling stuck. Traumatic events can cause you to feel like you aren't able to move forward in life. Feeling misunderstood can be isolating. Managing it all alone is brutal; however, you do not have to go through this alone! Therapy can be freeing and life-changing when working with the right therapist.

Hello! I'm Alexis, a creative therapist with a direct approach. I enjoy working side by side with my clients to help them reach their goals. Starting therapy is a difficult step for many and I aim to present a welcoming and safe environment for each of my clients. My clinical focus is working with individuals who have experienced trauma, have complex PTSD, or are working through dissociative disorders. In addition, I work with women who have ADHD— especially those that have been diagnosed in adulthood. I am trained in EMDR and in DBR levels 1-3 as well as adjunctive DBR trainings.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by chronic stress, burnout, or trauma, particularly as a neurodivergent or highly sensitive individual, you’re not alone. I began my therapy career as an in-home intervention therapist, working with families affected by chronic stress and trauma. This experience highlighted how neurodivergent and highly-sensitive individuals often face additional challenges due to lack of support and accommodations. These unseen struggles can carry into adulthood, leaving you feeling burnt-out. Coping skills that once helped may no longer be effective, and the weight of daily life can feel overwhelming.

I am dedicated to helping my clients build bridges to a healthier, happier life. Are you going through a big change? Life calls us into constant change. Whether planned and joyful or unexpected and grief filled: changes in relationships; parenting; or career - they take their toll on each of us. Healing through grieving, stretching, adjusting, and growing can be blocked when you feel overwhelming emotions, when you are fearful and avoidant of what is to come, and when you simply don't know how to move ahead. I listen to, support, and teach my clients to help reduce anxiety, depression, and stress that comes with life transitions.

As a dedicated therapist, I specialize in guiding individuals on their journey to healing from the effects of long-lasting trauma, including sexual, physical, emotional, and relational experiences. My focus is on supporting those who struggle with shame, self-hatred, and forming healthy relationships in the present. I understand that trauma can manifest in various ways, leading to issues such as eating disorders, body image concerns, and a pervasive sense of unsafety within oneself. I work with clients living with PTSD symptoms such as flashbacks, self harm/ suicidal ideation, and disconnection with others.

Are you feeling stressed out, zoned out, or off-balance? Do you feel like you're drowning under the weight of responsibilities, while others seem to be thriving? Have you been using social media, toxic relationships, or substances to numb or distract yourself from the discomfort? I'd love to try and help you find your footing and feel more like yourself again. Most of the clients I work with have a lot more in common than they realize. They are struggling...but they believe they SHOULD be able to manage everything. I want you to know it’s okay to be struggling.
