About Alexis

Alexis Skopos is a Florida LMHC with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also lists life purpose among her areas of work. Alexis uses a direct, personable style that blends practical conversation with moments of humor and honest challenge.

She helps people who feel stuck after a big life shift or who are unsure what comes next. Sessions often include talking through patterns in relationships, processing past hurts, and building small steps to try differently. Alexis notes specific attention to issues like attachment, abandonment, codependency, and commitment concerns.

Her academic background includes a bachelor’s in psychology and a master’s in clinical mental health counseling from Stetson University. The profile records experience in residential programs, crisis units, high schools, child welfare, and methadone clinics. Alexis has worked with survivors of domestic violence and people affected by substance use challenges.

The biography mentions Brainspotting practices and trauma-informed approaches to CBT and ACT. It also references familiarity with Gottman couple methods and Prepare/Enrich, which informs how she addresses communication and relationship patterns. She brings a practical focus to sessions rather than abstract theory.

Alexis describes a multicultural outlook shaped by her Greek background and interest in the concept of sophrosyne, or balanced living. Outside of work she enjoys creative hobbies such as candle making, resin art, and tattoo culture, and she values self-expression through art and play.

How therapeutic methods shape online sessions

Alexis lists Brainspotting and trauma-informed cognitive and acceptance-based techniques among her approaches. Brainspotting is a somatically informed method that locates physical positions linked to distress and uses focused attention to process traumatic material. Trauma-informed CBT adapts cognitive-behavioral work to safety and pacing, helping people notice thoughts and test small behavioral changes. Trauma-informed ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) emphasizes values and committed action alongside acceptance strategies for difficult feelings.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. She will work with clients to identify which approaches feel most useful and adjust as goals and needs evolve. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and shifting course when something does not fit.

The practical benefits of remote sessions can include fitting therapy into busy schedules and keeping continuity after a life change. The biography does not list specific online formats; please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to keep regular check-ins, reduce travel time, and let people attend from wherever they are living, while allowing the therapist and client to focus on concrete steps and relationship patterns during sessions.
