Dr. Alex Thompson

Greetings! My name is Dr. Alex Thompson, PsyD and I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual psychotherapy for young adults and adults in Fort Collins and throughout Colorado. I value the therapeutic space as an important tool for growth and self-reflection that can help empower you to be the best, authentic version of yourself. I have experience working with a wide diversity of individuals, with specific attention to students, student-athletes, folks in the LGBTQIA+ community, those with multi-cultural identities, and working professionals. I have expertise in the treatment of ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, phase of life difficulties, relationship issues, obsessions and compulsions, and concerns of identity.

I really enjoy working with others to build the life that they find most meaningful, equipped with the skills to cope with whatever challenges may come along the way. In session, I am a client-centered therapist who utilizes evidence-based strategies. My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside the integration of components from Interpersonal psychotherapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Relational-Cultural Theory, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Above all, I care deeply about cultivating a welcoming environment that supports honesty and connection.

In a first session with me, whether by tele-health or in-person, you can expect to first be warmly welcomed into an accepting and supportive space. I will then dedicate some time to get to know you more as a person and learn more about what you are hoping to gain from therapy. We will then work together to establish some goals that define the changes you are pursuing and bring you closer to the life you want to lead.
