Associate Marriage & Family Therapist

Individual Therapy & Couples Counseling
in-person in San Francisco and online throughout California

Welcome! I’m Alexis

I’m a holistic psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals and couples heal, grow, and create more connection in their lives. l know firsthand how challenging life can be — I’ve faced my own struggles, too — and I understand how vulnerable it can feel to look for a therapist. Just by being here, you’re already taking a meaningful step toward greater well-being.

In our work together, I offer a compassionate and affirming space to explore what’s getting in the way of your happiness. We’ll gently untangle the places where you feel stuck, deepen your self-awareness, and empower you to live with more ease, freedom, and choice.

While I address a range of concerns, I specialize in supporting individuals who experience anxiety, and those who identify as ‘people pleasers’ or perfectionists. I also focus on couples — helping them work through challenges, improve communication, and build a more connected, resilient relationship for the future.

let’s connect

I offer in-person therapy in San Francisco and
and online therapy throughout California.

Much of what makes therapy successful is the strength of the relationship you have with your therapist, so finding someone with whom you feel comfortable is important.

The best way to get a sense if I’d be the right therapist for you is for us to meet by phone or zoom for a free 20-minute consultation.

My practice is trauma-informed and social justice aligned, and I welcome people of all ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations.
