EMDR THERAPY

EMDR is used to help reprocess traumatic events with the goal of reducing triggered responses flashbacks and more.

PARTS WORK
THERAPY
Alexis utilizes parts work as a precursor for EMDR for those who experience dissociation. It is a way in which we get permission from the nervous system to do deeper trauma work.
CLINICAL SUPERVISION
Alexis takes an approach to supervision that meets supervisees where they are at in their learning process and readiness for growth. I utilize DBT principles and hierarchies to inform my supervisory work.
CLINICAL CONSULTATION
Alexis provides one-on-one consulting services to therapists looking for additional support and guidance in areas including suicide prevention, intimate partner violence, trauma and dissociation.
