More Than Just Talk....... If you haven't been in psychotherapy before, you may not realize that the traditional approach to treatment is to educate the client about their conditions and teach them how to change their own feelings and behaviors. Although this approach can be very helpful, it is usually a long process that depends a great deal on the individual's courageous persistence. Moreover, a change in behavior and belief does not necessarily resolve the history of negative experiences fueling such things as depression and anxiety. These are some of the reasons I offer "More Than Just Talk".

Thank you for finding me. I am a mental health therapist who strives to help others with creating their best version of themselves. I offer support, empathy, and guidance utilizing evidence-based treatment to help you to navigate your life path with wisdom and clarity.

Welcome! I'm Alexis and I have experience working with every age group (children, teens, adults, retirees/senior citizens) over the span of mental health concerns including clinical symptoms, relational distress, emotional disturbance, and behavioral adjustment. Additionally, I have served couples in marriage counseling and families through family counseling/parenting support. Ideal clients are motivated for change, interested in exploring deep roots of present issues, and willing to try what might be uncomfortable or new to take ownership of their health + be empowered to pursue true behavior modification and healing.

The best thing about being a therapist is getting to meet so many different people and walk with them through their journey, being able to help them reach their own personal goals. I really enjoy working with individuals that have a desire to make lasting changes and take back control. We can lose ourselves in the chaos that we find ourselves surrounded by, and being able help others find solitude within that chaos is what I love about this profession.

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and feel very comfortable addressing any life-span issue or transitional concern. I also enjoy working with young adolescents as well as young adults addressing issues related to anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Working with a variety of age groups, including adults; allows me to maintain up to date clinical skills as well as having a better understanding to all life stages. Regardless of what difficulty you may be facing, the first step to change is the awareness that something doesn't feel right. This awareness is usually the first step to the possibility of change.

While every counseling experience is unique, the team at Pittsburgh Pastoral Institute (PPI) seeks to provide an empathetic relationship in which individuals and families can safely and freely discuss their challenges and concerns in a holistic context carefully considering the mind, body, and soul in therapy. This is also a "person-centered" process in which the client determines the areas of exploration and discovery.

I have been helping clients of all ages, races, and backgrounds live more fulfilling, rewarding, hopeful lives for as long as I can remember. It was natural for me to become a psychologist and make my mark on the world by doing exactly what I loved to do. Although my clients continually tell me how much they are helped by therapy, I can honestly say that I am the one who is truly changed by helping others. No matter what your difficulties are, I can assure you that you will be changed in some way by entering therapy. There is no difficulty too great or too small to work on in therapy. The only constant in life is change.

I believe that each person should be treated with compassion and understanding. I have experience working with a variety of clients. I have worked with children and adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, behavioral issues, and trauma. I’ve also worked with adults in many of these same areas, in addition to parenting issues, addictions, and relational issues. I have been in private practice for the last 7 years. Prior to that, I worked in an outpatient clinic for 5 years specializing in faith based counseling. I have worked in both outpatient and partial hospital settings.

Witnessing positive change in my clients has provided not only professional joy, but unflagging belief in the benefit of psychotherapy as a catalyst for personal growth. Investment in self can bring great personal and professional rewards. I am ready to work with clients who are seeking to identify key areas, issues or goals in their lives that will support recovery, relief and new insights into life's many confounding challenges. Optimizing my clients' potential is my primary focus.

Clients who work best with me tend to yearn awakening and change. I welcome the challenge to help clients connect with higher versions of themselves. Trauma, difficult emotions, relationships and the stress of life often lead to feeling stuck, feeling out of control of yourself, your emotions and reactions. My goal is to show you that there is a better way. A way to live with intention and purpose, guided by the best version of you! (Please note I do not have evening or weekend availability and my office is located in the South Hills of Pittsburgh- I will ask you to complete a brief phone consult to ensure I am a good fit)

Your teenager is driving you crazy lately: they never listen, they’re always glued to their phone, and getting them to do anything is like pulling teeth. Sometimes they seem like a sour patch kid: one moment they are sweet and the next they’re slamming doors and holing up in their rooms. They’re constantly on edge, the smallest things set them off, and they have been crying more frequently. Maybe they don’t spend time with their friends and you want them to feel confident and included. You are not alone and many teens just like yours are going through the same struggles.
