philadelphia reproductive & perinatal psychologist supporting your journey through matrescence
hi! i'm alexis...
and I built the Reproductive Wellness Center because I know what it looks like when women don't have enough support, and what becomes possible when they do.
I specialize in the reproductive years - fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, early parenthood, and loss - because this is one of the most psychologically significant times of a person's life, and one of the most underserved.
I am passionate about helping women heal from perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, reconnect with themselves, feel strong and confident in motherhood, and trust the instincts that gets drowned out when everything feels like too much.
my credentials
Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology
MSEd. in Mental Health Counseling
B.A. in Psychology and Women & Gender Studies
Before starting the Reproductive Wellness Center, I trained and worked across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Delaware in settings that shaped the clinician I am today - trauma-specialized care at Cooper University Health Care, private practice, Penn Center for Women's Behavioral Wellness, college counseling at City College of New York, and a specialized obstetric mental health internship at ChristianaCare's Women's Emotional Wellness program.
In addition to my clinical work, I remain actively engaged in maternal mental health research. I believe that being a clinician and a scholar makes me a better therapist because I can offer care that is grounded in the most current evidence. My research has focused on areas including infertility content on social media, group prenatal care implementation, and postpartum PTSD among Black birthing people.
