Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm Alexis and I am glad you are here. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in the DMV with over 12 years of experience & I've worked with individuals navigating a wide range of concerns from anxiety & relationship trauma to life transitions & unexpected turns. A lot of my clients come to therapy already doing the work but something still feels stuck. Their successful on paper but emotionally depleted beneath the surface. Anxiety follows them to work & stress shows up at home. The same patterns keep resurfacing in their relationships. They want more than coping. They want to live with intention. That's usually where I come in.

My approach to therapy

I believe healing starts with understanding; understanding yourself, your patterns, the stories you've been carrying, and how they're showing up in your life right now. Therefore, my approach is integrative, which means I draw from multiple evidence-based frameworks depending on what you need: CBT, DBT, ACT, attachment-based work, and trauma-informed care.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an intake; it's a chance for me to learn more about you, your history, and what's bringing you to therapy. We'll go through some background questions, talk about what you're hoping to work on, and start setting goals for your treatment.
