Getting to know Alexis Johnson
Starting therapy is a powerful step—and it takes courage. I'm here to offer support as you navigate this journey, while always respecting that your path is yours to choose. Together, we'll create a space where you can reflect, reset, and move forward. When you are ready, I am here.
I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your unique needs, we will tailor each session to you. Your goals and progress are my primary focus. Together, we’ll identify challenges and work on strategies to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or ready for change. Together, we focus on understanding what is holding you back and creating a plan that helps you feel grounded, clear, and empowered. No one person is alike, so the approach is always tailored to the individual. Clear, actionable steps forward.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My communication style is warm, attentive, and direct. I strive to create a space where you feel heard and respected, while also offering clear feedback and guidance when helpful. You can expect me to listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and help you clarify your thoughts and goals, along with providing an actionable problem-solving approach.
My journey into therapy began with a deep curiosity about human resilience and the desire to guide others to find strength through life’s hardest challenges. I’m continually driven by the fundamental belief that everyone has the potential for positive growth and change. Seeing my clients gain confidence or find peace makes my work incredibly rewarding.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In our work together, goals are always set through collaboration. You decide what feels important, and I will guide the process by suggesting strategies and tools that match your needs. We create the plan together, you practice in between sessions, and we review and adjust as you go. Moving from where you are to where you want to be with actions.
In our first session, I typically gather some background information, explore your concerns, and help identify the goals you would like to work toward. It is also a time for you to ask any questions you might have and get a sense of how I work, so you feel comfortable moving forward. Remember- you are in charge here. It is a safe place to share your concerns, define your goals, and decide how to move forward.
