Therapy for Adults, Teens, and Couples in Nevada

Alexis Montes

I work with adults and teens who feel trapped in cycles of grief, anxiety, or obsessive thoughts. My goal is to help you slow down, untangle what feels overwhelming, and create meaningful change at a pace that feels sustainable.

Therapy for Grief, Anxiety, and Overthinking

Sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right,” but the heaviness won’t lift. You get through the day, check off the boxes, and keep moving. Underneath it all, you still feel anxious, distracted, or weighed down. Maybe you’re grieving someone you love, a version of your life that changed, or the loss of who you used to be. Or maybe your mind is always spinning, replaying conversations, worrying about what’s next, or stuck in loops you can’t seem to break.

Therapy can help you pause and breathe when life feels like too much. It’s a chance to sort through what’s been building up and make sense of what’s keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll look at the patterns that aren’t working anymore, find small moments of calm, and rebuild trust in your ability to handle what comes next.

My work focuses on helping adults and teens who feel trapped in their own minds: caught between wanting things to change and not knowing where to start. You don’t have to have it all figured out. We’ll take it one step at a time, finding your footing and helping you move toward a life that feels steadier, more grounded, and more like your own.

Let's Get Started

Who I am, and how I got here:

I know firsthand how overwhelming life can feel when stress, loss, and daily demands pile up. My journey into this field began after experiencing therapy that felt disconnected, and I knew that I wanted to do things differently. Over the years, I’ve supported many adults, teens, and families. I’ve seen how deeply grief, anxiety, and ADHD can shape a person’s daily life and sense of self.

Now, I help adults navigating grief, ADHD, and anxiety. I consider it an honor to hold space for people, and to walk alongside them as they move toward healing and acceptance.

How I help:

My sessions are built to feel safe, respectful, and judgment-free. Therapy with me is a space where you can breathe, reflect, and just be without pressure or expectations.

I draw from a range of approaches to fit your needs, including:

  • Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT): making sense of complicated feelings when it feels like too much

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): untangling automatic thought patterns that keep you stuck

  • ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy): clarifying what matters most and building a life that aligns with it

  • Exposure Therapy: taking small, supported steps toward easing anxiety and panic

For clients with ADHD, I also bring in grounding strategies, structure, and tools to support executive functioning. I always focus on your strengths and individuality.

Off the clock:

Outside of sessions, I love spending time with my family and our two dogs (a proud corgi and border collie mom here!). You can usually find me reading, practicing yoga, trying new recipes, or recharging in nature.
