About Alexis
Alexis takes a down-to-earth approach. She listens first, then works with each person to identify patterns that get in the way. Sessions use a mix of strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and build new behaviors. She emphasizes practical tools people can apply between visits.
Her background includes ten years of clinical work and roles across community settings. Alexis has experience supporting people through trauma, parenting stress, postpartum depression, and adjustment after big life changes. She also addresses obsessive thoughts, panic, phobias, and issues tied to family of origin and caregiver strain.
Therapy with Alexis blends several well-known methods. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thinking, dialectical skills for emotional regulation, and emotionally-focused ideas for relationship patterns. Mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies are used when they fit a person's goals.
Outside the office she balances life as a mother and partner and brings that practical perspective into sessions. People who work with her can expect straightforward conversation, concrete exercises, and a focus on small changes that add up over time.
How Alexis Uses ACT, CBT, and Emotion-Focused Ideas Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. This can help with anxiety, low mood, and finding direction after life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for panic, phobias, obsessions, and depression. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in relationships and helps people express needs and connect differently, which can ease relational stress and improve communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to the person’s goals, preferences, and challenges. That collaborative process helps decide whether ACT, CBT, EFT, or a mix makes the most sense.
