Alexis Jamshidi, LCSW

Alexis Jamshidi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on helping people with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life changes. She frames therapy around practical steps and clear goals, so conversations lead to everyday improvements. Alexis aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful for families, parents, and individuals facing big transitions.

She uses a client-centered stance that puts a person's priorities first. That means listening closely, reflecting what matters, and shaping work from the client’s goals. She adds techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help spot unhelpful thoughts and build different habits.

Her background includes work with people managing grief, trauma and abuse, caregiver stress, and immigration-related concerns. Alexis also addresses issues like communication problems, commitment worries, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and the emotional fallout of separation or infidelity. Her work often focuses on improving self-esteem and coping skills for everyday stressors.

Alexis brings six years of clinical experience in California to her practice. She emphasizes cultural responsiveness and pays attention to how family background and identity affect current struggles. In sessions she aims to help people feel less isolated and more able to make changes that matter.

She works with motivation-based approaches when people need direction and uses narrative strategies to help reframe painful stories. The goal is practical progress that fits into daily life and into the real demands of parenting, work, and relationships.

Approaches explained and how online therapy can help

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's own goals and experience. The therapist listens carefully and follows the client's lead, helping people name what matters and choose next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought patterns and behaviors to find practical ways to reduce anxiety and lift mood through small changes and practice.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alexis will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That discussion may lead to trying one approach first and adjusting over time as progress and priorities become clearer.

Confirm the available session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or letting someone join from a quieter place with less background noise. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to an online setting so skills learned in sessions translate into day-to-day routines.
