Hi! I’m Alexis.
I enjoy travelling, kayaking, trying new recipes, gardening, being with people, and dancing to live music!
The only way out is through, and the only good way through is together. Even when circumstances separate us – in fact, especially when they do – the way through is together.
— John Green
I know how hard it can be to reach out for support, by navigating to this website you have already taken the first and most important step of your journey. As a client-centered therapist, I aim to work collaboratively with you drawing from various evidence-based practices. I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship which I believe is the foundational aspect of the therapeutic process. In each session, I aim to create safety, connection, and trust so you feel comfortable throughout your journey of healing and exploration.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I earned my Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Western University after completing my Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Psychology at Queen’s University.
I work using an integrated and flexible approach which allows me to develop an individualized treatment plan with each client. I draw from cognitive-behavioural therapy, emotion-focused therapy, systemic approaches, and attachment orientations depending on the unique strengths and needs of my clients. I am extremely passionate about working with youth, adults, couples, and families to help them overcome challenges and accomplish their own personal successes.
Now that you have taken your most important step, I encourage you to take the next step by setting up a free, 15-minute conversation with me. I offer this so that you and I can get to know one another before embarking on our therapeutic work together. I welcome the opportunity to connect with you and support you as you navigate forward.
