About Alexis
Alexis Tyson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship issues, and related concerns such as grief, parenting stress, and career strain. Alexis works directly with people to identify habits and beliefs that get in the way of daily life and practical goals.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions focus on what is not working, experimenting with new responses, and tracking small changes over time. She uses a mix of cognitive-behavioral ideas, client-centered conversation, and emotion-focused work to help people name patterns and try different ways of coping.
Alexis draws on narrative techniques to help people reorganize how they tell their own stories. She also uses aspects of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and choose committed actions. Those methods are combined with practical exercises so sessions stay concrete and goal-oriented.
She has worked with concerns that include bipolar mood issues, intimate and sexual problems, anger, self-esteem, and LGBT-related stress. Additional focus areas include Veteran and Armed Forces Issues and sexual assault and abuse. Alexis aims to help people find clearer choices and steps they can use between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Alexis commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. ACT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing behavior that aligns with chosen directions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person’s experience and priorities. That approach supports hearing and organizing what feels most important before selecting specific techniques.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her toolkit for identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns. CBT provides hands-on exercises and experiments people can try between sessions to reduce symptoms and test new habits.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust methods as needs change over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time. Therapists and licensed professionals generally use these conveniences to help clients maintain consistency with appointments and practice skills between sessions.
