Alexis Skopos

Alexis Skopos, LMHC, is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor who brings a realistic, relatable style to therapy, with room for both warmth and gentle challenge. She focuses on helping people feel understood and heard so they can speak openly about what is weighing on them - whether that includes anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, or major life changes. Her work aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can be honest about their experiences and start building steadier footing for the next chapter of life.

Alexis earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Stetson University. She holds certifications in multiple Brainspotting practices, trauma-informed CBT (a skills-based approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact), trauma-informed ACT (an approach that supports values-based action while making room for difficult internal experiences), Gottman couple’s counseling, and Prepare/Enrich. Her background includes experience in residential units, crisis units, high schools, child welfare, and methadone clinics, which informs her ability to meet clients where they are with practical support.

She is especially passionate about supporting the LGBTQIA community, the sex positive community, the body acceptance community, and survivors of domestic violence, and she is committed to continuing her learning for multicultural-informed care. Drawing from her Greek background, Alexis is inspired by the ancient Greek concept of Sophrosyne - the pursuit of balanced character and a sound, steady mind - and she uses this perspective to help clients regain a sense of control, develop healthier pathways, and reconnect with inner peace. She also values creativity and self-expression, and welcomes clients who want therapy to feel both human and goal-directed.
