Two ways to work together
Whether you’re seeking personal healing or professional support, this space is designed to meet you where you are, without performance, pressure, or pretense.
For Therapy Clients
Trauma therapy for complex trauma (childhood/chronic), substance use, and/or chronic health issues. This is a steady, grounded space to work with what you’ve carried, and at a pace that honors your nervous system.
For Therapists
1:1 virtual consultation for therapists seeking support with complex cases, clinical stuck points, and business-related concerns in their practices. A space to think clearly, collaborate honestly, and feel less alone in the work.
My work is steady, honest, and authentic.
I’m Alexis Pena, and I am so honored to have you here!
I work with trauma, complexity, the parts of life that don’t tidy up nicely, and most importantly, humans. My style is grounded, direct, occasionally dark humored, and deeply authentic. I believe in clarity over performance, depth over quick fixes, and creating space that can actually hold what’s real.
If you’re looking for structure, insight, and a therapeutic relationship that doesn’t talk around the truth, you’re in the right place.
