Alexis Sturnick, LCSW, PMH-C
You do not have to have it all figured out to start. Life has a way of throwing challenges at us that feel impossible to navigate alone, especially when you are a student trying to find your path or a professional struggling to keep your head above water. I provide a down to earth, judgment free space where you can finally drop the perfect act and focus on what is actually happening. My goal is not just to help you cope, but to help you build a life that feels balanced and authentic. We focus on moving beyond the performance of being fine so you can start living with actual relief.
I believe therapy works best as a collaborative partnership. I specialize in helping clients work through high-functioning Anxiety, OCD, Eating Disorders, and Body Image concerns. We look at the root of these struggles while building practical tools you can use every day. From the complexities of relationship conflict and substance use to the unique challenges of Perinatal Mental Health, I provide specialized support for the stages of life that change us the most. Using a trauma-informed and psychodynamic approach, we explore how your past experiences shape your present, helping you gain the insight needed to move forward with confidence.
I blend professional expertise with a personal understanding of life’s major transitions. I reject the one size fits all checklist in favor of strategies tailored to your unique goals and experiences. Whether we are addressing family dynamics or the intense reality of becoming a new parent, our sessions are a space for you to be seen and supported without the fluff of traditional self-help. Let us work together to unlock your resilience and help you reach your full potential. You do not have to be the strong one alone.
*Insurance & Fees* I am an out of network provider and provide a superbill to be submitted to your insurance for reimbursement. My office is happy to assist in verifying your benefits and with initial submission processes to ensure your focus stays on your mental health. I also offer a sliding scale rate if appropriate.
