Compassionate Psychotherapy for Teens & Adults

I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space for individuals wanting to shift from overwhelm and chronic stress to a place of inner confidence and clarity.

Hi, I’m Alexis

Whether you’re a teen searching for a sense of direction, a parent struggling to hold it all together, or an adult feeling stressed and overwhelmed, I can provide a safe space for you to explore, grow, and heal.  Understanding how you got “here” is often important as you try to get “there.”  It can be a lonely journey without someone alongside you.

I understand that finding the right therapist is paramount when it comes to seeking guidance, or when you need someone to share your story with. I also appreciate that asking for help is often difficult and uncomfortable. I am experienced, approachable, and I enjoy working collaboratively with people from all walks of life.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I specialize in working with adults, families and teens who are experiencing stress from a variety of sources.

I draw from a variety of therapeutic models and work from a place of respect, kindness, and understanding. I pride myself on being positive and focused on the unique strengths of my clients. I believe that my love for what I do has a strong impact on the families and individuals I serve.

The research on stress is clear: it can kill us. Much of this stress is due to internal, psychological, factors.

Psychotherapy helps you sort out these stressors to heal and release the burdens you’re carrying. Learning how to live with ease and joy is not just for “lucky people.” It’s for us all, and it is possible.

Psychotherapy

Finding the right support can be challenging, especially in a fast-paced world with a myriad of competing demands. You know you need help, but you’re not sure where to begin.

You’re welcome to begin here, with me.

I’ve been a family therapist for many years, and I’ve led hundreds of people toward greater resilience and self-empowerment. Change is possible when you have the right support and are willing to take the first step.
