About Alexis

Alexis Brown is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Oregon with seven years of clinical experience. She draws on personal experience with addiction and years of professional work to support people toward recovery and greater well-being. Alexis aims to meet people where they are and offers steady, nonjudgmental support.

Her background includes focused work on addiction and substance use concerns. She also helps people manage stress, anxiety, and depression. Alexis has supported people through postpartum depression, trauma and abuse, and post-traumatic stress related concerns.

Alexis pays attention to how difficult it can feel to ask for help. In sessions she keeps an open, authentic presence and encourages clients to lead the pace of their work. She emphasizes acceptance so people can talk frankly about what is happening in their lives and feel heard.

She also addresses issues around self esteem, body image, eating and food-related struggles, and problems with motivation and confidence. Alexis brings practical focus to these topics and helps people identify small, realistic steps toward change.

Clients can expect a direct but compassionate style. Alexis focuses on building a supportive working relationship first. From there she helps people set goals and try approaches that fit their daily life.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options

Alexis uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One common approach focuses on coping skills and behavioral change, helping people build small, practical habits to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, and handle stress. This kind of work targets day-to-day routines and problem solving to make life feel more manageable.

Another area of focus is trauma-informed care, which helps people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe. This approach emphasizes emotional regulation, grounding skills, and rebuilding a sense of safety after abuse or other traumatic events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alexis works with each person to identify goals and preferences, and she adapts techniques based on what feels most helpful. Together they try strategies and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the client's needs.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care while moving or adjusting schedules, and it can simplify attending sessions during a short break from work or parenting duties.
