About Us
Alexis N. Silva
Hi there! I’m Alexis, a warm and dedicated counseling intern excited to join your
journey toward healing and growth.
Currently pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UTSA, I specialize in helping children, individuals, and families navigate life’s challenges with care and creativity. I believe therapy should be as unique as you are, which is why I love incorporating fun and expressive techniques like art, play, and storytelling into sessions.
Whether we’re using colors to paint emotions or games to build confidence, my goal is to create a safe and engaging space where kids (and grown-ups!) feel empowered to thrive. With a strong background in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused care, I’m here to support you through anxiety, big feelings, or tough transitions.
I bring years of experience in active listening, emotional support, and helping clients uncover their strengths so they can shine their brightest. I work with individuals experiencing extreme trauma, including abuse or loss, as well as those seeking to improve relationships, build resilience, or foster healthier communication.
Outside the therapy room, you might find me volunteering with cancer patients, soaking up Sinatra tunes, or dreaming of my next trip to the beach. If you’re looking for a
therapist who’s compassionate, creative, and ready to meet you where you are, I can’t wait to meet you and your family!
