Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I provide a supportive, structured space for individuals experiencing intense emotions, relationship instability, and difficulty regulating feelings. Together, we work to understand emotional patterns, strengthen distress tolerance, and develop healthier, more stable ways of relating to others. I use evidence-based approaches to help you build practical skills for managing emotional overwhelm and improving communication in relationships. The focus is on creating greater emotional stability, deepening self-understanding, and supporting meaningful, lasting change in how you experience and respond to emotions and relationships. If you’re looking for steadier ground and more control over emotional ups and downs, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
What is often pathologized as “borderline” or a "personality disorder" reflects adaptations to early relational environments that were chronically intense and inconsistent; not a defective person. Heightened emotional sensitivity and fears around closeness often develop as ways of staying connected and safe. In therapy with me, we can focus on understanding how these patterns show up in the present, especially in relationships that matter. Over time, this work supports greater emotional stability, depth, and a more secure sense of self rather than short-term symptom control.
