About
Alexus Alston, MS, MSW, LISW-CP
My name is Alexus Alston, and I am a dedicated and passionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have a deep commitment to helping individuals facing various life challenges. I am very excited to bring my education and professional experiences to the field of therapy. I graduated with my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Winthrop University and received my Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Kentucky. I also received my Master of Science in Forensic Psychology from Walden University. I was born and raised in Myrtle Beach, SC. In my free time, I enjoy coaching track and field, trying different foods/food places, and reading a good novel!
My journey into counseling was inspired by my strong desire to make a positive impact on people's lives. I truly believe that all individuals can be resilient. My work history includes working with diverse populations, specifically children, adults, and families. My academic background has equipped me with a solid foundation in therapeutic techniques, counseling theories, forensic psychology, and a deep understanding of human behavior. I love using a hands-on approach in sessions, paired with elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I also draw on a range of therapeutic modalities to meet my clients’ needs. I am eager to apply my knowledge to support clients on their path to personal growth and well-being.
I take pride in providing a compassionate and empathetic space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. I am very dedicated to actively listening and understanding the unique experiences of each individual I work with. As a social worker, I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can open up, reflect, and work toward positive change.
I am super excited to embark on a therapeutic journey with you. If you are looking for a supportive, empathetic, and patient person to help you see your resilience, I am that person and would love to meet with you!
