Meet Alexis
Licensed Master Social Worker
Welcoming new clients!
Are you feeling disconnected, discontent, overwhelmed, or stuck? Let's work on it! In therapy, we'll break down limiting beliefs, connect to your true Self, and release shame and trauma weighing you down. Tuning into your values, desires, fears, and patterns can unlock a fulfilling, peaceful life. As a queer therapist with ADHD, I love working with neurodivergent and queer clients in their adolescent and quarter-life stage! Bring your authentic, human self to my judgment-free healing space. I have experience working with anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, panic, depression, grief, body image, and relationship challenges (Ethical Non-Monogamy inclusive).
Life's been hard lately. More than ever, you may notice needing a supportive space to process, reflect, grow, and do the work to build a life you love. With the right tools and support, I know that you are capable of building that life, releasing shame and pain, growing into the person you dream of becoming, and learning how to treat yourself with kindness and compassion.
My priority as a therapist is to help you meet YOUR goals and create a space for you to embrace the REAL you. I believe that YOU are the expert of your life, and your experience should be honored. We'll build a toolkit of useful and effective skills to ease pain in your life, as well as dive deep to heal the parts of you that are suffering. I draw on Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy principles, among others.
I'm honored to gain your trust as an experienced guide, ally, and advocate on your journey. I know personally and professionally that therapy is an avenue for liberation, and I would love to be part of your journey to freedom. You got this! I can't wait to hear from you!
