About Alexis
Alexis Fuller is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) licensed in Illinois with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship problems, trauma and grief. Her practice includes focused attention on guilt and shame alongside other concerns such as abandonment and communication problems.
She helps people who are coping with the fallout of separation or divorce and with the aftereffects of traumatic events. Sessions often address workplace issues, questions of life purpose, and rebuilding self-regard after loss. Alexis uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide that work rather than relying on a single fixed method.
In conversations she aims to make emotional patterns clearer. She helps clients name difficult feelings, trace how they affect choices, and practice different ways of responding. That can include looking at painful memories or trying out new communication habits in relationships.
She attends to the cultural background and personal history that shape how guilt and shame show up. Practical tools and short-term exercises are mixed with deeper exploration when that is needed. The emphasis is on small, concrete steps people can use between sessions.
For someone carrying persistent guilt or shame, sessions are a place to sort through what happened, what it means now, and how to act differently going forward. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the platform options provided.
Evidence-based approaches and remote care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to address symptoms and patterns. One common approach focuses on understanding how thoughts and feelings drive behavior, offering practical exercises to try between sessions and reduce repetitive, self-blaming reactions. Another approach involves processing distressing memories in a paced way so memories feel less overwhelming and can be put in context rather than avoided.Choosing the right approach is something the therapist and client decide together. She looks at your goals, the type of pain you bring, and what feels workable in day-to-day life. That collaborative process means techniques can shift over time as your needs and priorities change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to continue consistent work after a move or during life transitions, while the therapist helps match approaches to what fits your situation.
