Hi, I’m Lexi, also known as That Therapy Girl. I graduated from Florida State University with a bachelor’s degree in Sociology and went on to earn my master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, with a focus on family systems.
When I’m not in the therapy room, I’m also a proud fur mom to two: a tabby cat and my Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified School Counselor in the State of Florida. I have been working with children, adolescence, families, and adults for 26 years. I specialize in positive psychology, social emotional wellness, families and parenting, addiction, anxiety, stress, and wellness.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I believe healing begins with feeling safe, understood, and genuinely supported. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative space where you can show up as you are while we work together toward meaningful, lasting change.
I work with adolescents and adults navigating eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, OCD, body image concerns, life transitions, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. My approach is evidence-based and individualized. Rather than relying on a single therapy model, I draw from EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and attachment-informed interventions to create a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals.
My professional experience extends beyond my years as an independently licensed clinician. Throughout my career, I have worked in community mental health and specialized eating disorder treatment across the full continuum of care, including residential treatment, partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and outpatient therapy. This breadth of experience allows me to support clients with complex needs at every stage of recovery.
I have a particular passion for helping individuals heal their relationship with food, their bodies, and themselves. I strive to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients feel empowered to understand themselves more deeply, develop effective coping strategies, and create lasting change.
I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and am passionate about increasing access to culturally responsive mental health care for Hispanic individuals and families.
Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, but you don't have to do it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing.
I have nearly a decade of experience working with a variety of individuals with many backgrounds. I emphasize the importance of a trauma-informed and supportive approach. I have expertise in treating a number of diagnoses, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and trauma. I offer a number of modalities, including CBT, MI, DBT, EMDR and IFS.
I am a dually licensed clinician with over seven years of experience working with the adult population, specializing in assisting individuals in identifying their best selves and achieving personalized goals to improve day-to-day life. I have a Masters Degree from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and hold two licenses: Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor.
I am a therapist with extensive experience providing compassionate person centered care to individuals, couples and families. My approach is warm, supportive and non judgmental, with a focus on helping clients identify their own strengths, insights and solutions. I strive to create a safe and welcoming online environment where clients feel heard, respected and empowered. I also offer flexible scheduling including evening hours to make therapy more accessible.
I'm a board-certified psychiatrist based in Miami, Florida, offering telehealth appointments for adults across Florida. My practice focuses on anxiety and depression, and I take the time to truly understand what brings each person to treatment before we talk about any plan. I combine medication management with psychotherapy so that each session addresses the full picture of your mental health. If you've been struggling to find a provider who listens carefully, asks the right questions, and works collaboratively with you, I'd love to connect.
I am a seasoned psychotherapist in practice over 30 years as an LMFT. I graduated from Pepperdine University and I specialize in christian counseling with specialties in trauma. addictions and relationship issues
I help children, adults, couples, and families who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or substance-use challenges. As an LPC-S, LCDC, and Certified School Counselor, I bring behavioral-health and school-based experience to therapy. My style is warm, direct, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental. Together, we identify patterns, build practical coping and communication skills, and create a treatment plan that reflects your needs, strengths, and goals.
I truly believe I was born to help others, and caring for people has been a passion throughout my adult life. With more than 20 years of experience as a licensed counselor, I've had the opportunity to support people through anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship concerns, mood disorders, and many of life's difficult transitions.
My experience has taken me across a variety of settings and populations, including more than 10 years working with teens. I understand that reaching out for support isn't always easy, and I want you to know that you deserve a space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. No matter what brings you to therapy, my goal is to meet you with compassion and without judgment as we work together toward greater clarity, healing, and a healthier way forward.
I want you to know that my role is to support you with compassion, respect, and evidence‐based care. I take the time to listen closely so I can understand what you’re experiencing and what matters most to you. My approach is collaborative—I believe treatment works best when we make decisions together. I’m here to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can speak openly and feel heard. My goal is to help you move toward stability, confidence, and a better quality of life.
