About Curllin
Dr. Curllin Alexis is a New York psychologist (NY Psychologist 025059) with six years of clinical experience. She works with people who are handling stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem concerns, and related challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and she practices in New York.
Alexis focuses on common interpersonal problems such as communication difficulties, attachment concerns, and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses conditions that often overlap with social anxiety - for example avoidance, isolation, and struggles speaking up in groups. People who come for help may also bring questions about work stress, caregiver strain, or complicated loss.
Her work draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. In practice this looks like identifying unhelpful patterns, trying small behavior changes, and noticing what matters most to the client. Sessions mix practical skills, discussion, and reflection.
She also works with concerns such as ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, career shifts, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include abandonment, body image, immigration issues, and end-of-life caregiving. Alexis aims to help clients clarify what they want and take manageable steps toward it.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed small steps toward them, which can help with anxiety and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often useful for social anxiety and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections, helping people understand communication and trust issues.Finding the best approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps most. The process emphasizes working together to pick techniques and practices that make sense for the person’s life.
