Professional statement

Lexi has experience working with issues such as trauma, suicidal ideation, family dynamics, ADHD, Autism, anxiety, and depression. Lexi enjoys working with individuals across the lifespan.

Lexi has been in the field for 4+ years and has a variety of experience working in settings such as outpatient therapy, non-for-profit, private practice, and in school settings.

Lexi works from a person centered, narrative and existential lens- viewing therapy as a collaborative effort between the therapist and client. Lexi thinks that the way you tell your story and the language that you use is very important. Lexi enjoys helping clients find their passion and sense of belonging in life.

Lexi is currently accepting clients and is available for sessions remotely online via SimplePractice Monday-Thursday.

Message to clients

Hello and welcome! Thank you for considering going on this journey with me! Here is a little bit about me-

As a therapist that identifies as Queer and Neurodivergent, I am passionate about working with and advocating for LGBTQIA+ individuals, as well as other marginalized identities. I welcome topics such as diversity and identity in the counseling room.

When I am not practicing therapy, I enjoy singing, songwriting, and playing instruments. I also love to include music and art within therapy. I feel that utilizing creativity and mindfulness can be healing in many ways.

I believe that everyone has a story to tell and thank you for being open to sharing yours with me.
