Great to meet you!

Hi! My name is Alexis Weston. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Integrated Healthcare Studies from Ohio University and my Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of Kentucky (2022). I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker in Ohio. I have experience providing therapeutic services to children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, life stressors, and adjustment disorders. I enjoy being creative and attempting to make therapy engaging and more enjoyable when working through difficult challenges. I provide telehealth only at this time with weekend availability.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Building a relationship in therapy is very important. I will work to create a safe, empathetic, and validating space to work together. I am trauma informed and am trained in multiple trauma informed modalities including Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Integrative Treatment for Complex Trauma, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.

What you can expect from our first session

In the intake session, I will gather information regarding past history, challenges, barriers, strengths, and what brings you to therapy with me. We will determine together a treatment plan and goals in which you identify you want to work on. My goal is to create a safe environment for clients to feel heard, supported, and challenged.
