Meet Alex STRONG
Dr. Alex Strong is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner.
She is the owner and founder of Forte Wellness. Alex considers herself a native Texan despite growing up in Albuquerque. She arrived in Fort Worth in 1999 to attend TCU and graduated with a BS in Advertising. After a few years working with Stryker Communications, she decided to follow her passion into healthcare and become a nurse. Alex received her BSN from TCU in 2009 and was part of the transplant program at Baylor All Saints for 6 years. While working on the transplant unit, she received her MSN from Samford University. She then began practicing family medicine at Baylor Family Medicine in Weatherford. Alex achieved her Doctorate of Nursing Practice in 2019, also from Samford University. It is safe to say she is a life-long student and has a passion for learning.
Alex developed a passion for holistic and preventative health care while working in primary care. Her primary goal is to facilitate a safe and trusting environment for her patients to explore their health needs, feel supported and leave knowing they have been heard.
When Alex is not working, she enjoys traveling, cooking, running, and attending concerts. She is married to a wonderful man and has two fur babies (aussies), fondly known at The Silky Boys. She is a horned frog through and through, and enjoys cheering on TCU.

Meet Ashlyn Cuppetilli
Ashlyn Cuppetilli is a Registered Nurse with a passion for functional, holistic, and preventive care.
She is originally from a small town outside of San Antonio, but has made Fort Worth home since attending nursing school at TCU in 2019. In 2023, she graduated with her BSN and accepted a job in the Emergency Department at Methodist Dallas. After some time in the ER, she decided to shoot for her dream job as a NICU nurse at Cook Children’s and started there in the fall of 2024. During her senior year at TCU, she and Alex were paired up by their personal trainer and became workout partners. Ashlyn said that Alex opened her eyes to the area of functional and holistic medicine, leading Ashlyn to realize that she had a real passion for this field!
Ashlyn's mission is to help people feel their absolute best, find root causes, and join them on their journey to being their healthiest, happiest selves. She's along for the ride, there for them every step of the way. Her hope is that people would feel seen, known, and supported in their health journey.
When she's not in scrubs, she can be found outside, working out, reading, or cooking. She's very involved with her church and has the greatest friends surrounding her. She looks forward to seeing you at Forte Wellness.
