ALEXIS HONEYCUTT, LMHC | CERTIFIED GOTTMAN THERAPIST
Alexis Honeycutt, Relationship Expert & Certified Gottman Therapist
Expertise in marriage, couples, communication, betrayal, and complex relationship challenges
Alexis Honeycutt has built her career around one central question: what helps two people create, protect, and repair a relationship that matters deeply to them?
​
As a relationship expert, Certified Gottman Therapist, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and former University of Central Florida instructor in Marriage and Intimate Relationships, Alexis brings an unusual depth of specialized training and real-world experience to couples facing difficult relationship problems. Her work includes communication breakdown, betrayal and loss of trust, entrenched conflict, emotional distance, and major decisions about whether and how a relationship can move forward.
​
Couples often come to Alexis when the problem is too important for generic advice and too complicated for another conversation that ends in the same place. Her approach is direct, private, research-based, and designed for couples who want to understand what is actually happening between them and make meaningful decisions about what comes next.
A Career Focused on Marriage and Relationships
Alexis’s expertise in relationships is the result of years of deliberate specialization. She earned both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the University of Central Florida and later returned to UCF as an adjunct instructor, teaching undergraduate coursework in Marriage and Intimate Relationships.
​
Her clinical training continued far beyond graduate school. Alexis became a Certified Gottman Therapist, one of the most rigorous relationship-focused credentials in her field, and has continued building specialized knowledge in couples communication, conflict, betrayal, intimacy, relationship assessment, and the decisions couples face when a marriage is under significant strain.
​
She is also a National Certified Counselor, a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator, a Gottman-trained Educator for the Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work program, and trained to facilitate PREPARE/ENRICH. Together, those disciplines give Alexis a perspective that extends beyond helping couples communicate better. She understands relationships clinically, educationally, and through the lens of complex conflict and decision-making.
​
That breadth matters when a relationship is complicated. Alexis frequently works with capable, accomplished couples whose problems cannot be reduced to a communication worksheet or a few simple techniques. They may be dealing with betrayal, years of unresolved conflict, competing versions of what went wrong, or a marriage that still matters deeply even though neither partner knows what should happen next.
Life Beyond the Office
Alexis is a wife and mother, and her own marriage and family are an important part of the perspective she brings to her work. She understands that strong relationships are not built in theory. They are shaped over years through change, pressure, competing demands, ordinary routines, difficult conversations, and the choice to keep knowing one another as life evolves.
​
Outside the practice, Alexis enjoys time with her husband and two sons, especially family trips to the mountains of North Carolina and drives along the Blue Ridge Parkway. She also enjoys cycling, reading, cooking, and singing.
A Relationship Practice Built Around Specialized Expertise
Alexis’s expertise extends beyond the couples she sees privately. She has provided training, consultation, and co-facilitation to counseling organizations throughout Greater Orlando, sharing her specialized perspective on marriage, communication, conflict, and relationship dynamics with other professionals.
​
Today, Alexis leads a private-pay practice centered on couples and relationships. She works with couples in person in Oviedo and Winter Park, provides virtual care in Florida, Connecticut, and North Carolina, and offers a limited number of Private Two-Day Couples Intensives at approved private locations throughout Florida.
​
Her practice is designed for couples who value discretion, depth, and specialized relationship expertise, especially when the situation is too important or too complicated for a generic approach.

The Relationship Work Alexis Is Known For
Alexis’s practice is intentionally centered on couples. Her work ranges from ongoing Gottman Method couples therapy to concentrated private intensives, betrayal recovery, premarital work, and relationship education for couples who want to strengthen what they have before something breaks.
Couples Therapy
For couples who want consistent, ongoing support, Alexis provides evidence-based couples therapy focused on the patterns that shape communication, conflict, trust, friendship, and intimacy. Her work is grounded in the Gottman Method and tailored to the realities of the relationship in front of her.
Private Couples Intensives
When a relationship is carrying more than a weekly session can comfortably address, Alexis offers private couples intensives with extended, uninterrupted time to understand what has happened and begin addressing it. This work is often chosen when there has been betrayal, entrenched conflict, repeated communication breakdown, or a major relationship decision that cannot simply be ignored.
The Art and Science of Love®
Alexis also presents The Art and Science of Love®, the two-day educational workshop developed by The Gottman Institute. It gives couples a research-based way to strengthen communication, friendship, conflict management, intimacy, and shared meaning while keeping their private conversations between the two of them.
When the Relationship Matters, Expertise Matters
Choosing who to trust with your relationship is a consequential decision. Alexis works with couples who are looking for more than reassurance or generalized advice. They want someone who can recognize the deeper dynamics beneath the argument, ask the questions that actually matter, and be direct about what needs attention.
​
Whether you are trying to repair trust, understand why the same conflict keeps returning, reconnect after years of distance, or make a difficult decision about the future of your marriage, Alexis brings specialized relationship expertise, discretion, and a research-based perspective to the conversation.
​
If you are considering working with Alexis, begin by sharing a little about what is happening and what you are hoping to change. From there, you can determine the most appropriate way to begin.
