Alexis Jackson
Hello, I'm Alexis. As a dedicated therapist specializing in supporting the LGBTQ+ community, women, and young adults dealing with challenges like depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, I bring expertise in perinatal mental health and serve as a doula/birthworker as well.
Additionally, my specialization in supporting the LGBTQ+ community, along with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, enables me to offer comprehensive and affirming care to those seeking support.
My approach integrates various therapeutic techniques, creating a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their struggles, fostering positive growth and well-being during pivotal life transitions, including the perinatal period.
First session
In our initial session, clients can expect a warm, welcoming environment where we establish a strong foundation of trust and collaboration. We'll discuss your goals, concerns, and explore what brought you to therapy. Additionally, I'll explain the therapeutic process, address any questions or uncertainties you might have, and together, we'll outline a personalized plan to best support your needs moving forward.
Strengths
As an experienced therapist, I believe my greatest strengths lie in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and understood. My ability to empathize and connect with individuals, coupled with a diverse range of therapeutic approaches, allows me to tailor treatment to meet each client's unique needs effectively. Additionally, my specialization in supporting the LGBTQ+ community, along with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, enables me to offer comprehensive and affirming care to those seeking support.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to support individuals within the LGBTQ+ community, women, and young adults who are dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. My practice is tailored to create a safe and affirming space for those seeking understanding, support, and guidance in navigating their mental health challenges and personal growth.
Treatment methods
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) principles to empower clients with practical skills for managing emotions, enhancing relationships, and fostering personal growth. Through tailored treatment plans and focused skill-building exercises, I aim to provide a supportive environment where clients can achieve their therapeutic goals.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connections between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By collaboratively identifying and modifying unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, I empower individuals to develop practical coping strategies and achieve their therapeutic goals. Through a structured and goal-oriented approach, CBT within our sessions aims to foster positive changes and enhance overall well-being.
