About Alexcis

Alexcis Bradley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing issues like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and life changes. Alexcis also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, communication and commitment problems, and challenges linked to family of origin and blended family dynamics.

She focuses on helping people identify what matters to them and move toward those values despite setbacks. In sessions she uses clear, practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.

When trauma or painful memories are present, she may incorporate eye movement desensitization and reprocessing to work through distressing experiences. Client-centered principles guide the way sessions are paced, with attention to listening and responding to each person’s concerns. The work tends to be direct and grounded in everyday choices rather than abstract concepts.

Alexcis describes progress as small, steady steps toward values-based living rather than quick fixes. She asks questions about what matters now, what gets in the way, and what changes would make daily life more manageable. This approach is practical and focused on building habits that fit the client’s life.

People who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships, or health may find this style useful for clarifying priorities and testing concrete shifts. Her background in social work informs a focus on how personal challenges interact with social and family roles. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices from Texas.

How her approaches translate to online work

Alexcis frequently draws on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in her practice. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values, which can help when life feels directionless. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and introduces practical exercises to change patterns that maintain distress.

She also uses client-centered principles to shape sessions so the pace and focus reflect each person’s needs. When trauma is involved she may use eye movement desensitization and reprocessing to process distressing memories alongside mindfulness practices to manage intense emotions. These methods are explained and tried collaboratively so the client and therapist can decide what fits best.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote work helpful because it can fit into a workday, reduce travel time, or make scheduling easier. Alexcis will work with clients to choose an approach and rhythm of sessions that fit daily life and goals, adjusting methods as progress and needs become clearer.
