Alexis J.S. Sturnick, LCSW

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Perinatal Mental Health provider, dedicated to offering compassionate and personalized care. My practice is deeply rooted in a psychodynamic approach, enriched with diverse techniques to support each client's unique growth. Understanding that therapy is not one-size-fits-all, I am committed to serving clients holistically, respecting their individual needs. Together, we'll develop the tools that best support your therapeutic and healing journey. I earned my graduate degree from the prestigious New York University Silver School of Social Work and have further honed my skills with certifications from the William Alonson White Institute, the Ackerman Institute for the Family, and NYU in Trauma-Informed Practices. My experience spans across the lifespan, with a special focus on adolescents and young adults. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and stress management related to relationships and life transitions. Additionally, I support those facing challenges with substance misuse, disordered eating, and Body Dysmorphic Disorder. In today's world, dominated by comparison and social media, my goal is to help clients overcome the pressures of high expectations and foster self-acceptance and confidence. At Resilience Therapy, I believe in the power of resilience—the strength to overcome life's challenges and obstacles. Everyone's journey is unique, and I am here to support you in building the strength and determination you deserve. Let's work together to create a path towards healing and growth. *Active Member of : NASW, IAEDP (International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals), HRC, the Marion and Aaron Gural MHAT Taskforce* Founder & Lead Clinician Resilience Therapy LCSW PLLC
