Alexis Alcorn, ND

Your Goals, Your Experience

As a provider, I empower, educate, and support you on your journey toward embodying the best version of yourself. I keep your goals in mind when offering my educated opinion, with a deep knowing that no two people have the same lived experience. I practice through a trauma-informed, judgement-free, health at every size lens and will always meet you where you are at.

Connecting mental health with your nervous system

My passion lies in mental health care, the nervous system, and the interplay between the two. Join me for mental health counseling where I will be a witness to the exploration of difficult parts of your life. I want you to feel seen, and I will always do my best to understand you. Secrets are the womb out of which shame is born so allow me to hold that which you’ve not been able to share in the past. Let’s make intentional habit change that can be sustained over time. I am amazed by the amount of strength, courage, and sheer determination that I have the honor to witness every day.

Craniosacral Therapy for both the physical and mental

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle form of bodywork that reduces restrictions in the central nervous system. You can experience an improvement to both physical health complaints, such as pain syndromes, and mental health issues (depression, anxiety, and sleep). Let’s create a serene, calming experience where you can learn that being present in the body can feel nourishing and safe. This treatment is complimentary to mental health counseling and can aid the body in processing difficult emotions.

Optimize your Breath, Optimize your Health

In traditional Chinese medicine, breath is synonymous with life force, and I use breath coaching to help patients with a variety of issues. Optimal breathing does support physiologic function and organ health, but you may find more benefit from its impact on the mind. The breath can ground you to the present moment. If you are in a fearful or anxious state, stuck in the past, or trapped in the future, practicing skills connect you to the present can be invaluable.
