Founder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
View profile on Psychology TodayMy primary goal in working with clients is to pursue authenticity in relationship with self and others. It is a great tragedy to me that anyone would have to develop strategies for relational survival that result in living as a lesser version of themselves.
I believe that most of our mental health issues are the result of injuries in relationship, and that healing can be experienced through a healthy, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship.
My own sweet and messy journey through life involves struggling with chronic illness, depression, loneliness, and infertility. I've wrestled with God and questioned my faith as I longed for peace along the way, and I've found tremendous comfort in his radical acceptance of all my emotions as I seek to live my life well.
I believe that knowing and accepting where you are is the first step in the process of movement towards a rich life that includes improved emotional and relational health. I want you to believe that things can be different, that life can be enjoyable again!
"If you are feeling angry, depressed, anxious, or stuck; afraid that your life will never be what it should have been, I would be honored to sit with you and help you grieve your losses. Let me shoulder a bit of the burden, cleanse a bit of the wound. Maybe together we can find some of the hope that's been misplaced."

Client Feedback
"During my three years as Alex's client, he was a consistently kind and caring presence in my life. I'm grateful that I had someone that I both trusted and respected to help me navigate the stresses of my work, the struggles of my marriage, and the suffering in my life."

"In my time with Alex, his presence has brought a great deal of redemption. I have become more human. I have become more of myself. I have found kindness in places I never imagine kindness could enter. I am more brave today because of Alex. His presence is a beautiful conduit of God's grace."

"I am so grateful to call Alex Vis my therapist nearly two years and counting. Alex has graciously walked, sat, sorted and treated the ins and outs of my story with professionalism, knowledge, grace and care. Therapy with Alex has been a paramount part of my continual healing. From my childhood trauma, physical, emotional, and spiritual abuse through adulthood, grief, loss, suicide, marriage, parenting, career, and non traditional families. Alex dug alongside this story through sound therapeutic techniques and made space for my own spiritual wrestling. It is all welcome and it all belongs. I was welcomed and I belong. For that I cannot recommend this space enough."
— Rebecca (wife, mother, age 45)
