About
Hey there! I’m Alexis Smith, an LPCC from San Diego who’s passionate about supporting BIPOC adults within the LGBTQ+ community. As an openly queer therapist, I’m excited to support you within an affirming space to recognize, explore and accept your own queer identity and navigate the myriad of challenges that come along with queerness and being a POC. You can expect my approach to be rooted in CBT, to incorporate lots of humor, encourage you to express your feelings in the present moment, involve aspects of astrology, exploration of your attachment and inner child wounds and to be tailored to meet your specific needs. I communicate with a human-forward approach (cussing, AAVE, millennial vibes, pop culture lingo, etc.). I’ll be sure to balance validating you while lovingly holding you accountable. There’s no right or wrong way for you show up to our sessions, whether you’ve got your bonnet on, pjs, wrapped in a blanket or munching a snack, I just want you to feel comfy. Through close, collaborative focus, I’ll support you to explore past experiences, the root of self-limiting beliefs, your relationships and present moment needs in order to deepen your self-compassion, ability to regulate and reach better alignment. If any of this has resonated with you, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation today!
