I believe therapy begins with feeling safe enough to be honest and being heard without judgment. I want my clients to know that you don't have to have all the answers before coming to therapy. Sometimes taking the first step is the hardest part.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Maryland and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) licensed in Virginia and Maryland. I have worked in behavioral health for many years, with a particular focus on substance use, co-occurring mental health concerns, and trauma. My experience includes working with adults from diverse backgrounds and supporting individuals through residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient levels of care.

I genuinely enjoy helping people recognize strengths they may have forgotten they have. I believe that your diagnosis, substance use, trauma, or past experiences are only part of your story—they do not define who you are. I will meet you where you are and work with you to identify where you want to go next.

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.
