Lexie Avery
Hi there, I'm Lexie! I believe that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness, and I am passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express your thoughts and feelings as well as heal and grow. I enjoy working with people of all ages. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My style is warm, empathetic, and down to earth. I often combine evidence-based techniques, such as CBT with genuine conversation to help you build practical tools for lasting change
First session
In my first session I like to get to know you with just conversation and build on a rapport so that trust can be built between us, unless the person wants to go right into their reason for treatment.
Strengths
I navigated my own anxiety and depression and found healing through therapy
Ideal clients
My ideal client would be someone who is less defined by a specific diagnosis and more by psychological readiness, motivation for growth, and a readiness to do the work. I also think an ideal client is someone who can naturally connect and share similar lived experiences or reflect aspects of their own past difficulties, provided professional boundaries and personal healing are maintained
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
This means we won't just talk about your problems - we will actively work together to change how you experience them
