Teen Therapists in Roswell, GA

You may be having a hard time focusing and paying attention. You may just want to be left alone or are beginning to become more and more irritable about situations. And yet, no one seems to understand you. You believe that you are getting little support or understanding from friends and family. You are experiencing a great deal of stress trying to figure out how to move forward and hold everything else together. You are not alone. Call me. I can help.

As a parent, there's nothing worse than watching your child struggle. Standing by and watching their grades fall and their anxiety rise is excruciating, but nothing you've tried is making the situation better. Your child doesn't seem to know what's due or when, they are unorganized, have no plan for studying, lack effective study habits and skills, and have trouble disengaging from their phones. Communication is breaking down between you and your child and they seem unmotivated and apathetic toward school. You may also be questioning if your child is just being a typical moody teenager or if it's more serious. Are they depressed?

Hey there! I'm Alexis, and I’m glad you stopped by. Working alongside individuals, couples and families to overcome obstacles is my passion. I enjoy working with a broad range of issues that include complex trauma, PTSD, substance use, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, self-esteem, anger management, and adolescent behavior. In addition, I am passionate about walking with individuals as they navigate their Cultural Identity and LGBTQ+ identity. My priority is to create a safe and nurturing environment for each of my clients. Clients have described my therapeutic style as warm, empathetic and creative with some occasional dry humor.

My professional beliefs are based in theory that believes all people want to feel significant, connected and capable and therefore all behavior has a purpose. Patterns and themes develop in people’s lives often discouraging them and at times can inhibit growth and or decrease abilities to function effectively. Many times our patterns and themes can be traced back several generations. I spend the first several sessions getting to know you, your family history and exploring current significant relationships. From these sessions, we will jointly agree to the goals of treatment.

I provide clients with a non-judgmental, compassionate and safe space to work through life’s challenges. I work with adolescents, adults, as well as couples, and those in nontraditional relationships. I enjoy supporting clients as they work through depression, anxiety, self-harm, trauma, and life transitions. I also frequently work with LGTBQ+ youth and adults. I am trained in the Trauma Recovery and Empowerment model, and I have worked with clients through the Georgia Crime Victims Compensation Program. For adolescents, I offer a Teen Resiliency Group for anxiety and depression.

Are you an adult or teen who is struggling to manage difficult emotions? Have you experienced emotional trauma, struggling with relationships, and/or feeling bad about yourself? Maybe you are just exhausted from emotional distress and need support. If so, please consider contacting me for therapy. I am passionate about helping clients live happy, fulfilled lives. Together, we can work to help you gain deeper understanding and work to accomplish goals that make life more satisfying. My areas of focus include suicide, self-harm, eating disorders, body image, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, identity, and self-esteem.

It is an honor and privilege when people choose to reach out and share some of the most vulnerable areas of their lives with me, and is not something I take lightly. I understand that choosing to inquire about counseling means different things for different people, and that each person brings a different life journey. I love walking along side my clients, empowering them to make healthy changes, while approaching each person with empathy, genuineness, and warmth.

There are many things to consider when starting therapy. It can be overwhelming to find a good therapist who is also a good fit. I specialize in mood disorders (anxiety, depression and bipolar d/o) and OCD (obsessive-compulsive d/o) with clients of a diverse age range. I also work with clients who have long-standing relational and personality issues. I work from a holistic model and I help clients to make small changes across many areas of their lives: physical and mental health, social support, stress reduction, spirituality/faith (if there is a desire to incorporate it), while holding the cultural context of each person in mind.

Are you worried that your teen daughter is stressed or depressed? Are you frustrated with the lack of communication or defiant behavior? Are you concerned about your teen 's drug and alcohol use? Modern teen -hood for girls is a very difficult time in life, one that needs a specific set of coping skills. The rise in peer pressure, competitive conflicts, and unhealthy social media messages are all likely contributors to a national increase in anxiety, depression and low self-worth in girls. Counseling can help teen girls to improve decision-making, managing stress, and learning coping strategies to better set them up for future success

Sometimes the families that look perfect on the outside struggle behind closed doors. Moms are grappling to make picture-perfect Pinterest parties for kids who barely speak to them, make sure her parents can still live independently, connect to husbands who are trying to succeed amid the stresses of work, all while surpassing expectations at the office. It's hard to explain to your teenager why they should have to work for their trip to Europe because it builds "character", in a Kardashian society.
