About Curllin

Dr. Curllin Alexis is a New York licensed psychologist who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She has six years of experience and works with adults to address difficult life moments and persistent emotional struggles.

She uses practical methods to help people manage symptoms and make daily life easier. Sessions emphasize clear tools and small changes that add up. The goal is to build coping skills and strengthen resilience in everyday situations.

Dr. Alexis draws on several approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment-Based work. She combines problem-solving with attention to values, relationships, and how past attachments shape present reactions.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She helps people set concrete goals, try focused exercises between sessions, and track progress over time. Conversations are direct but compassionate, aiming to make therapy feel useful and manageable.

Dr. Alexis also supports those facing career stress, caregiver strain, and burnout or compassion fatigue. She addresses concerns like addiction, trauma, sleep and eating issues, and intimacy-related problems. Practical coping strategies and clearer self-understanding are central to her approach.

Therapy with Dr. Alexis is offered in English from New York. She works through common life transitions such as divorce, immigration stress, caregiver challenges, and grief, helping people find steadier footing and move toward goals.

Approach-driven care through online sessions

Dr. Alexis blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make clear changes and live in line with their values. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can ease anxiety, mood issues, and sleep problems. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult feelings while committing to meaningful actions, useful for grief, chronic stress, and motivation struggles.

She also incorporates Attachment-Based ideas to better understand how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and closeness in adult relationships. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Alexis will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences rather than relying on one fixed model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can provide focused check-ins, and messaging supports brief check-ins or between-session coaching. These formats make scheduling easier and let people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel demands while keeping the focus on practical, goal-oriented progress.
