Life can sometimes feel overwhelming or painful. You may appear “successful” on the outside while struggling with anxiety or depression underneath. If you’re a queer or BIPOC person, it can be unsettling to live in a climate that politicizes your identities. If you’re neurodivergent, life may feel set to “hard mode,” exhausting yourself trying to fit someone else’s mold. Over time, these pressures or past traumas can keep you in survival mode, making it hard to imagine a life beyond coping. In therapy, we’ll honor what you’ve lived through while helping you move toward a life that is more compassionate, honest, and truly your own.

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, I work with clients with a variety of concerns. Clients who work with me desire to grow and learn individually and interpersonally. I work with concerns from individual to professional to relational issues, including mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, and trauma. In addition, my background in special education allows me to address further parent-child and child-education issues, including those with special needs. I am also trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing).

The simple fact that we are all human beings means that we will experience the joy and pain that comes with being alive and living life. Most clients tend to seek a therapist while they are going through a difficult transition that often feels painful and sometimes lonely. As a therapist, I have learned that individuals tend to learn more about themselves, and experience more personal growth during these periods of transitions. Therefore, my favorite role as a therapist is to build a collaborative, supportive relationship with individuals that may be struggling with making decisions or adjusting to changes related to natural life transitions.

Hello, I'm Alexis McGaha. I am currently a graduate student in the Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) program at Capella University, and I serve as an MFT Intern at Hope, Love, Dream, INC. and Profound Peace Psychotherapy Collective.
I enjoy working with adolescents and couples. In my clinical approach, I recognize how generational trauma can hinder personal growth and the use of individual strengths. Mental health influences all aspects of our lives, and for some, it can be a matter of life or death.
