Getting to know Alexis May

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. I received my Master's from the University of California, Los Angeles, and have been practicing for 6+ years. I specialize in children, teens, and young adults experiencing life changes, transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and school stressors. My approach I believe that authenticity and trust are essential in building a therapeutic relationship, and we will work together to process challenges, develop healthy coping skills, and make meaningful changes. My focus My client focus is on children, teens, and young adults who are navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and school-related stressors. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where clients feel heard and understood. My communication style My communication style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable expressing themselves openly. I listen actively and communicate with honesty, compassion, and respect, meeting clients where they are while gently challenging them to explore new perspectives. My journey to mental healthcare I grew up with a parent who is a clinician, so mental health was always an important topic in my life. This early exposure inspired my passion for helping others and guided me toward a career in therapy. I also work as a school social worker, where I support students and families through challenges and help them build resilience and confidence. My goals for you I help clients reach their goals by working collaboratively to identify what feels most important to them and creating a personalized plan for growth and change. Together, we break goals into manageable steps and use practical tools and strategies to support progress along the way.
