Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Mrs. Alexis Barnes-Scott and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I attended East Carolina University and have been practicing Marriage and Family Therapy for over 12 years. I specialize in relational concerns, trauma, women's issues, stress and anxiety management. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and my 15 year old pup, Bella. I'm hopeful to be of assistance to you on your therapy journey.

My approach to therapy

I would describe my approach as very affirming, while also challenging clients to explore new ways of thinking. My main modality is CBT, with a focus on systems theory and solution focused therapy.

What you can expect from me

My goal for all of my clients is for them to see themselves as the expert of their own lives. I am here to support you in your journey towards your goals, and will move as slow or as fast as you need.
