Alexis Pullins, LICSW — Therapist in Alabama

Hi there, I'm Alexis!

Welcome, you've already taken the most courageous step — recognizing and acknowledging that counseling may offer direction and clarity in your life. That awareness is powerful.

My focus

My ideal client is someone who is ready to seek change. My ideal client is receptive to feedback, growth, and improvement in various spaces in their lives.

My approach

I specialize in supporting clients who: 1) are managing their mental health, 2) are navigating significant life changes or transitions, and 3) are seeking insight into their past, present, or future experiences. My therapeutic approach integrates multiple evidence-based modalities, including CBT, Client-Centered, and SFBT.

My communication style

I view clients as the primary experts in their own lives, and I strive to foster a space where support, accountability, and self-direction work together to promote healing, growth, and transformation.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am an LICSW in the state of Alabama. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Alabama in 2020. With over seven years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including adolescents, teens, young adults, older adults, veterans, and individuals who are currently incarcerated.

My goals for you

I adhere to the principle of self-determination — a client's right to choose their own path. Therefore, I am there every single step of the way, providing reminders, encouragement, and guidance that can assist you in reaching your treatment goals.

Our first session

Through inquisitive conversation, the first session is solely based on determining if we are a good fit, gaining a specific idea of your goals, and establishing rapport.
