offer a collaborative and creative approach to therapy, grounded in trauma-informed and person-centered care. My work blends evidence-based techniques—such as CBT, DBT, and mindfulness—with a focus on building trust, empathy, and connection. I have a special passion for supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and those navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

Education: Master of Social Work, School of Social Service, Fordham University

Language: English

My therapeutic style is collaborative, creative, and grounded in both trauma-informed and person-centered care. I believe that therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and understood. Building trust and genuine connection is at the core of my approach, and I strive to meet each client with empathy and curiosity rather than judgment.

I’m really glad we connected today. In today’s world, anxiety is everywhere. My provider has helped me slow down, breathe, and find strategies to cope in a way that makes sense for today’s challenges.

I deal with anxiety daily, and Lexi just gets it. She didn’t make it feel like something is wrong with me she helps me work through it in a way that actually feels manageable.

I draw from evidence-based modalities while tailoring treatment to the individual. This means our work together may include strategies from CBT, psychodynamic therapy, DBT, mindfulness, or strengths-based frameworks. I highly value your voice in the process and view therapy as a shared space where we can explore challenges, deepen insight, and build tools for healing and growth.

I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and others navigating identity, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relational stress. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, and make sure to honor your strengths and resilience every step of the way.
