About Curllin

Dr. Curllin Alexis is a New York psychologist who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship challenges. She brings six years of experience to sessions and aims to create a calm, practical space for people to talk through what matters most to them.

Dr. Alexis focuses on everyday struggles like sleep problems, low self-esteem, workplace stress, and life changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma, addiction, ADHD symptoms, and intimacy-related concerns. Her practice includes attention to body image, caregiver strain, and forgiveness work.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions emphasize listening first, then trying strategies that fit the person's life. Techniques come from well-known approaches such as cognitive behavioral work, acceptance strategies, and attachment-focused conversations.

Clients can expect concrete tools for coping and clearer ways to handle difficult emotions. Dr. Alexis often blends skills training with reflective work about relationship patterns and values. She helps people build routines for better sleep, reduce compulsive behaviors, and manage impulses more skillfully.

Dr. Alexis works with a wide range of concerns that affect women and others, including compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, immigration-related issues, and end-of-life support. She is licensed as NY Psychologist 025059 and practices in New York, holding sessions in English.

Approach and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take action toward those values, even when strong emotions show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease mood symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people rewrite those patterns to feel safer and more connected.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Alexis will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what actually helps.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well for in-depth conversations and skills practice, phone can be lower-bandwidth and easier when typing is hard, and chat or text can be useful for quick check-ins or brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, whether someone needs shorter touchpoints or regular scheduled meetings.
