And you don’t have to figure this out on your own.
Meet Alexis Hiegel!
Meet Alexis Hiegel, LMHC.
She is a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in therapy for teens and young adults navigating school stress, relationship challenges, and family dynamics. With over two years of experience in private practice, she brings a grounded, compassionate presence to our team and we’re thrilled to have her.
She creates a brave, welcoming space where clients can explore who they are, what they want to change, and how to move toward a more fulfilling life with self-compassion. Her approach is flexible and collaborative, blending cognitive-behavioral strategies, solution-focused techniques, narrative therapy, and creative interventions to match each client’s unique needs.
She has worked with clients across the lifespan, but has a true passion for helping teens and young adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship stress, emotional regulation, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and the challenges of growing into themselves.
Fun things about Alexis:
Favorite hobbies/self care: reading fantasy/romance books, walking my dog, going to the beach, listening to music
Favorite go to shows: Dexter, The Office, New Girl, You, any psychological thriller
Desserts: all of them but recent obsession has been banana creme pie or Oreo pie from the Pie Factory
