I work with clients aged 14 and above across all gender identities. While my expertise lies primarily in aiding individuals and families impacted by complex and chronic trauma, I’m also skilled in addressing anxiety, depression, and assisting families to enhance their communication dynamics. My years in trauma and PTSD treatment have taught me the multifaceted nature of traumatic experiences. Whether it’s a sudden life-changing event like an accident or more subtle, long-standing issues rooted in family dynamics or early life experiences, I understand the challenge in trusting someone with your personal stories. Rest assured, I am dedicated to ensuring our therapy sessions are safe, and centered on your well-being.

I understand that therapy is not just about managing symptoms; it’s about fostering growth and development in all areas of a person’s well-being.

I utilize multiple modalities within my approach based on each client’s individual needs. These approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, solutions-focused, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), experiential, and client-centered. I have experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, and substance abuse.
I also have experience working in outpatient substance abuse treatment, within which I focused on sexual health. As a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional, I find sexual health education to be extremely important and strive to create an open, non-judgemental environment when discussing these topics.

Alexis Horst

I prioritize creating a secure and welcoming space for clients to express their thoughts, while helping them navigate complex thought processes through co-exploration and self-regulation techniques. My experience as a Division I student-athlete has influenced my emphasis on the mental health of athletes across all performance levels. Athletes frequently face substantial pressure to perform, both in competitive settings and life in general, which often leads to their mental health needs being unaddressed. My professional experience extends to areas including anxiety, oppression, trauma, grief, social skills, developmental concerns, ADHD, autism, bipolar disorder, and depression.
