My journey as a therapist was inspired by my own struggles. Addiction and mental health upended my life at an early age, but I came out on the other side with a fierce appreciation for life and an understanding that recovery can be fun. Now as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, my passion is driven by guiding my patients through their own mental health roadblocks to an easier life.
With 14 years of experience, I have practiced in a wide variety of settings and spent time as a martial arts instructor. I have incorporated boxing and adventure-based interventions to help clients heal, and am always looking for creative ways to guide others to recovery. Each client deserves an individualized approach, and that’s what I aim to provide using evidence based interventions.

Congratulations on taking this important step toward a healthier, more fulfilling life! Starting therapy is a brave choice, and I am here to offer a safe, supportive space where healing can begin. I specialize in working with individuals and families navigating the weight of past trauma, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Together, we can uncover your strengths, build resilience, and work toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. If you're ready to start your healing journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you every step of the way.
I chose to become a mental health provider because I have always been deeply passionate about helping others navigate life's challenges and find a sense of healing and balance. Throughout my life, I’ve witnessed how powerful support, understanding, and a safe space can be in fostering growth and resilience. I’m committed to empowering individuals to better understand themselves, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful change. Becoming a mental health provider allows me to combine my desire to make a positive impact with my belief in the transformative power of therapy. My goal is to help people lead healthier, more fulfilling lives, and to offer them the tools and support they need to thrive.

Hello and welcome.
Reaching out for therapy often begins during uncertain, vulnerable times. I’m grateful you’re here—choosing to make space for yourself, to be seen and heard, and to share the parts of your story that have been carried quietly for too long. This will be your space—steady, compassionate, and yours to grow in. To carry this forward, I approach therapy with a strong relational focus and deep honor for the process we’ll share. As The Sidecar Therapist, my mission is to ride alongside you—navigating the terrain, facing challenges together, one step at a time.
Whether you’re looking to set healthy boundaries, heal attachment wounds, reconnect with—and fall in love with—your authentic self, or find support through a neurodiverse lens, I’m here to hold space for you and offer a restorative process. Some paths may be linear, others winding, or marked by U-turns. But wherever your journey takes us, our work will be rooted in compassion, humility, and the amplification of joy.
This approach is shaped by my own lived experience, a diverse career path, and the training I’ve pursued—all of which deepen my understanding of the complexities of being human. I’m lighthearted, compassionate, caring, and real. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, with flexibility and deep respect for the realities of your life. I’ll hold space without judgment, and when you're ready, I’ll gently nudge you forward. Together, we’ll shape a path that reflects your values, your needs, and the vision you hold for yourself.

-Interpersonal Psychotherapy

Hi! My name is Alexis Kuney and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Southern California. Therapy and meeting a new therapist for the first time can be a little scary, but you've taken the first step, which is great! If you’ve never gone to therapy, or if it’s been a while, it’s time to move forward and rediscover the best version of yourself, and I'm here to help you do that. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, interpersonal/relationship issues, adult ADHD, and survivors of domestic violence. I also work with parents in high-conflict custody disputes to help them navigate the complexities of family court.
I have a personal knowledge of what it means to struggle, and I find satisfaction in helping people solve their problems in meaningful and adaptive ways. In these unsettled times, a therapeutic support system can be beneficial to all of us. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and hopeless coping with life’s challenges, it’s helpful to have someone calm, supportive, and empathetic to listen and provide guidance. Given that everyone is unique, and our lives are complex, I tailor my approach to you and your needs. My goal is to provide an environment that is safe and supportive so that we can work collaboratively to help you reach your goals.
