“When family issues or identity questions are part of the picture, I bring in family-focused sessions so the people around you understand what you need too. My approach is trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which means we go at a pace that feels safe while looking at what happened and how it still shows up in your body and your day.”

Después de más de una década de análisis sobre los procesos terapéuticos, creo fielmente en que cada ser humano tiene la capacidad y el potencial para hacerse cargo de cada asunto en su vida. Sin embargo, en ocasiones las personas necesitan apoyo cuando se encuentran en medio de una situación difícil. Me ofrezco como facilitador para ayudar a quienes lo necesiten a descubrir o desarrollar sus capacidades para entender el problema, encontrar maneras de solucionarlo y desarrollar las acciones necesarias para que la situación mejore y puedan continuar adelante. En especial, apoyo a personas que enfrentan ansiedad y/o estrés, transiciones de vida (separaciones, pérdidas, estudios universitarios, etc.) y/o traumas (EMDR). Apoyo especialmente a adultos(as) jóvenes (18 a 39 años) y adultos(as) de mediana edad (40 a 65 años); estudiantes universitarios(as), atletas, estudiantes-atletas, hispanohablantes, parejas y familias.

I’m Lex Santí, LCSW, DSW-S, MFA, Clinical Director of A Key Therapy, a mindfulness-based telehealth practice. I work with adults and couples (18+) navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, relationship concerns, and questions of meaning and identity. I’m licensed in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and Virginia.

Before founding A Key Therapy, I worked as a generalist therapist at Cornell Health, and earlier led international crisis response at Cornell. I know how heavy it can feel to carry a lot at once, and I bring steadiness, curiosity, and humor to the work. I’m also a writer, a yoga teacher, and a former Peace Corps volunteer, and I speak English, Spanish, Romanian, French, and Hungarian.

My caseload is often full, so if you’d like to work with me specifically, I keep a waitlist. A Key Therapy also has other clinicians who may be a great fit. You can learn more at akeytherapy.co.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Newark

Finding family therapists in Newark starts with understanding what your family wants to address together. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication breakdowns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family mental health, family behavioral concerns, or approaches such as family systems therapy, structural family therapy, or cognitive behavioral therapy.

Newark is a smaller city, so the number of local family care therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose a therapist who understands your needs. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, specific family members, or individual sessions at different points in care. Before booking, read each therapist’s profile to understand their approach, availability, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to talk through fit.

Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing support easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists in Newark, DE who are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your area and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
