Alex has been such a gift. She listens deeply, responds thoughtfully, and gently holds me accountable. She has a wide range of skills we use in session - EMDR, Grief Recovery, and others. I especially appreciate her ability to show me I'm making progress and to teach me to recognize that myself. She's also clear when I may need more specialized resources. As the cherry on top, when we have a light session, we have fun personal conversations like laundry advice!

Hi, I'm Alexcis! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I help people who long to feel stable and content. In working with clients I find that we all want to be physically, and emotionally healthy but hold ourselves back due to past and present difficulties. These barriers, keep us from moving forward and accomplishing our goals.
Living a life of values does not guarantee a stress-free easy life. It can however help get through the tough times by keeping us on track to accomplish our goals. Life is hard and full of stress. I believe that through self-compassion, values, mindfulness, and a desire for something better will lead to a meaningful life. Please message me so that we can get scheduled to start your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She’s very, very good. Very caring, and seems to know exactly what my concerns are and how I can better myself.
Alexis is great she response to my written comments the next day and I appreciate that.
I’ve only had a few sessions but I already feel pretty comfortable talking to her about stuff I don’t even like talking to myself about. I also feel like the tools I’m given are starting to help already. As well as always making time to talk about what is really bothering my at the moment.
So far so good
She is an excellent listener, caring person and expert at her craft. she’s given me tons of good advice and i never feel uncomfortable being vulnerable even for a person like myself who struggles being vulnerable around others.
She’s considerate, helpful and her approach works for me
Alexcis is the best! They are so informative and such a great listener always
Alexcis is a great listener and very empathetic. I had never been to therapy and wasn’t sure what to expect but she’s very easy to talk to and I appreciate her objectivity while assuring me my feelings are valid.
She is super helpful with all the advice and tools she provides for me.
Alexis is a wonderful counselor. I have made significant progress thanks to her help. She is a great listener and provides practical advice. It feels like working with a peer. I can’t recommend her highly enough. My finger slipped and I gave her a 9/10 but I wish I could have given a 11/10!
Alexcis is the best therapist I’ve worked with, she listens and gives amazing feedback. I’ve tried therapy many times over the years but her approach has been the most beneficial to me and I’m genuinely grateful for her time.
I started therapy with Alexcis several weeks ago, and after my first session I felt so much better! She is a good listener, and offers treatment in ways that are simple and clear to understand.
I honestly never thought that therapy could be fun, but it is! have only had two sessions with Alexcis and she has already helped me so much. She is so easy to talk to. Her insight into situations I’ve been trying to figure out for years has helped so much. I really look forward to my next session.
Alexcis is extremely helpful and I tend to stress out over really small issues, but she’s great and bringing me back down and going to the root of the issue.
Alexcis Grushinski has helped me feel validated and has been really encouraging me to create a better life for myself by thinking about my goals realistically. I am so thankful for all of the advice and having someone to talk to about these sorts of issues and setbacks. I feel so comfortable and I am grateful for the help!
I find Alexcis very helpful, knowledgeable, and extremely insightful. She never ceases to amaze me with perspectives to assist in problems previously tackled.
