MENTAL HEALTH Care That Recognizes the Person Beyond the Appointment
ABOUT ELEVATED HORIZONS MENTAL HEALTH
Elevated Horizons Mental Health provides secure telehealth therapy, clinical evaluations, reduced-cost counseling, professional supervision, and mental health education across Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado.
Founded by Alexis McCray, Ed.S., LPC, EHMH was created for people who want thoughtful, ethical care that considers their experiences, culture, responsibilities, identities, and everyday realities—not only a diagnosis or presenting concern.
WHY EHMH EXISTS
Mental Health Care Should Feel Personal, Clear, and Grounded in Real Life
Elevated Horizons Mental Health was created from the belief that people deserve more than rushed appointments, generic advice, or care that overlooks the realities shaping their lives.
Seeking mental health support can already feel vulnerable. Confusing processes, limited access, financial barriers, cultural misunderstandings, and previous negative experiences can make taking the next step even harder. EHMH works to reduce those barriers through clear communication, secure telehealth, straightforward expectations, and multiple pathways to care.
The practice serves teens ages 13 and older, adults, veterans, military-connected individuals, first responders, high-achieving professionals, parents, and people from culturally diverse communities. Services are individualized, ethically provided, and designed to respect each person’s experiences, goals, and circumstances.
You should not have to minimize who you are to receive meaningful mental health support.
MEET THE FOUNDER:
Alexis McCray, Ed.S., LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor • U.S. Air Force Veteran • Clinical Supervisor • Mental Health Educator
Alexis McCray was born in Anchorage, Alaska, to an Alaska Native mother from Noorvik, Alaska, and an African American father from Charleston, South Carolina. She grew up in a military family, spending much of her childhood navigating the experiences and transitions that came with her father’s service in the United States Army.
After graduating from high school, Alexis continued her family’s tradition of military service by joining the United States Air Force. She served on active duty for 11 years and deployed to Kuwait in 2010 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. She honorably separated from the Air Force in 2017.
Her father passed away in 2018, followed by her mother in 2025. These losses, along with her experiences as a military child, service member, veteran, woman of color, and business owner, have shaped her understanding of grief, identity, transition, resilience, responsibility, and the pressure people often feel to remain strong while carrying difficult experiences privately.
In March 2022, near the end of the COVID-19 shutdown period, Alexis founded Elevated Horizons Mental Health in El Paso, Texas. She created the practice to provide mental health care that considers the whole person—their culture, history, responsibilities, relationships, identities, and lived experiences—not only a diagnosis or presenting concern.
Alexis is a Licensed Professional Counselor providing secure telehealth services in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado. Her clinical work includes individual therapy, clinical evaluations and professional letters, counselor supervision, professional training, and the development of programs intended to make mental health services more accessible.
She is also a New Mexico Approved Clinical Supervisor and a New Mexico Continuing Education Provider. Her approach is thoughtful, direct, culturally responsive, and grounded in practical change. Clients are encouraged to show up as complete people—not polished versions of themselves who already have everything figured out.
Alexis is married to a retired United States Air Force service member and is part of a blended family that includes two stepdaughters and one stepgrandchild. Her experiences as a military child, veteran, military spouse, stepparent, and grandparent provide multiple perspectives on military-family life, parenting, family transitions, and relationships across generations.

People Who Want Faith Acknowledged
Clients may incorporate faith, spirituality, values, or religious experiences into services when those subjects are important to them. EHMH does not require clients to follow a particular faith or use a religious approach.
You do not have to fit neatly into one category. Care is based on the complete person and the circumstances bringing them to EHMH.
