Do you feel emotionally drained in your relationships, like you’re always giving more than you receive? Do you struggle to set boundaries, feel anxious in your connections, or find yourself repeating the same painful patterns over and over again?
Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, and stuck in cycles they don’t fully understand. These patterns are often rooted in past experiences, trauma, or relationships that have shaped the way you see yourself and others.

You’re not broken...but you might feel stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change. Maybe you overthink everything, doubt yourself, or feel overwhelmed by your emotions or relationships. You might feel disconnected from who you are or unsure what to trust inside yourself anymore. I work with people who are tired of feeling this way and ready for something to shift, even if they don’t know how yet.

I am a compassionate and dedicated professional, guided by a strong sense of humanism and a genuine vocation for helping others. I believe that a good life is not a fixed state, but an ongoing process—a direction rather than a destination. I see therapy as a meaningful path toward self-awareness and personal growth. It offers an opportunity to better understand yourself, redefine challenges, and transform them into learning experiences. Entering therapy requires courage, commitment, and openness, and through that process, real and lasting change becomes possible.

I'm Alexis! As a therapist, I like to focus on integrating evidence-based approaches such as DBT, EMDR and CBT.
