Facing life's challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating. As a therapist, I specialize in individual therapy treatment for anxiety, depression and trauma to include Brain Spotting therapy and facilitating divorce and breakup support groups, providing a compassionate, non-judgmental space for people to heal and move forward.
I am deeply passionate about empowering people to make positive changes in their lives, especially during those times when change feels difficult or uncertain. Whether you’re experiencing heartbreak, life’s growing pains, or simply need support in rediscovering your strength.

Life circumstances can become unpredictable and difficult to cope with. Therapy is about learning effective strategies to help alleviate the feelings of becoming overwhelmed. Listening with empathy and genuine regard is my approach to helping individuals I interact with and teaching them evidence- based therapeutic interventions. Trauma and depression are emotions that can lead to physical and spiritual ailments. I believe in holistically healing a person and would love the opportunity to help you!

The two most important qualities that I bring into each session with you are respect and appreciation--for your path as an individual, and for the creativity and resilience of the human spirit. In our visits, I strive to provide a safe, non-critical, therapeutic space; an interpersonal space that allows for open and honest self expression, self exploration and self acceptance. I try to listen well, and then to provide feedback tailored to your individual needs and inclinations. I bring over twenty years of experience, research, and training in brain-behavior relationships to my work as a therapist.

Finding what gives life value and then living those values wholeheartedly. That's my vision of a happy life, and that's what I love to help people discover for themselves. I am committed to the belief that nobody else can determine for you what that life is supposed to look like. Together we can explore what your vision is, what you are already doing well and what might be blocking you from your best possible life.

Your health and time are precious commodities. Chronic stress and unresolved traumas can compromise both, impacting your sleep, mood, job performance, life choices, relationships and sense of belonging. We all juggle numerous responsibilities that demand of our time and energy, creating the potential for disconnection from others, ourselves, and what we enjoy. Having an unsustainable pace creates opportunities for fatigue, anxiety, loneliness, depression, and physical distress to occur. I want to address these with you.

I enjoy working with people from a variety of cultural, racial, and ethnic backgrounds. Women's issues have always been a topic of concern for me, especially related to abuse, domestic violence, harassment, unhealthy relationships, low self-esteem, and excess stress. My work with clients who have disabilities is very important to me also. These individuals need to be heard, validated and provided with assistance in getting past anger, shame, guilt, sadness, and confusion.

THE CHOICE...
One of my clients said that she wished that choosing a therapist was like finding a new puppy. You get a sense of the breeding, temperament and capability and then you know from a heartfelt connection that you have the right one. Here you must decide from an exhaustive list of similar sounding credentials. So what I want to offer is some background and then hopefully you can have the experience she wished for everyone.

Call me Lexi! As a pre-licensed practicum student, I view therapy as a place to explore yourself and the world around you. I view the complexities of life as integral parts of one’s self-being: we are who we are in part because of the world around us. Therapy with me is a place to be able to evaluate the parts of oneself and how they affect the whole person, while integrating the outside parts that affect us as well. My style is an integrative approach that meets the person where they’re at with authenticity and helps build their perseverance.
