Alexis Santiago (She/They)

LPC, MA, MS
Accepting Clients

My name is Alexis and I work with children and adults to help them understand themselves in relationships, healing, and growth.

Licensed Professional Counselor in Chicago, IL
Supervised by Michael Bruner, LCPC

About My Clients

Clients that I have served work on a variety of concerns: agency in life, healthy boundaries, socio-emotional wellness, exploration of gender & sexual identity, integrating religion & spirituality, anxious symptoms, sexual assault/abuse survival, navigating racism/oppression, avoidant behavior, disordered eating, and pandemic fatigue.

My Background and Approach

I have a background in sport psychology that informs how I view the way in which we perform as humans. This helps us steer in the direction of thriving versus surviving, and self-actualization. My clinical training was in school counseling with children 6-12 years-old of various developmental stages, socio-emotional awareness, race, gender, and neurodivergence. This understanding of how we develop and how we are evolving allows me to help clients tap into their inner child and address wounds that need to be healed. My current work has entailed working with clients from ages 5-56 years old - I find an integrated approach that is eccentric in nature allows for holistic treatment of the individual in my care. I trust that my clients are the experts about their lives, and that our collaboration to find solutions and alternative ways of being that promotes harmony and success.
