Hi! Thank you for being here. Therapy is a vulnerable but rewarding journey, and even being on this page represents a significant step toward healing. I hope we can work together to define and cultivate a more fulfilling connection to yourself and the important people in your life. I view clients as professional peers and equals—people who have valuable insight and contributions to their learning and growth. As such, my approach to therapy is one that acknowledges, supports, and values collaboration. Together we will navigate a path toward healing and equanimity.
Although I work with people from all walks of life, I am especially passionate about supporting those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and/or relationship challenges. I also specialize in working with neurodivergent (i.e., ADHD, autism, and learning differences) and LGBTQIA+ individuals and providing identity-affirming care.
Finding the right therapist can sometimes be hard! I would be happy to meet with you, via a 15-minute consultation, free of charge, so you can have the opportunity to evaluate if we would be a good fit for therapy.
Call or Alex Farquhar-Leicester now for a free 15 minute consultation - (402) 736-6799
