Getting to know Alexi Sousa

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I’m honored to be part of that process. I was drawn to becoming a therapist because mental health has been part of my story for as long as I can remember, both in my family and in my own life. Growing up in a blended family gave me early insight into complex dynamics, shifting roles, and how deeply our relationships shape our sense of self. Later, moving from the smallest state to a bustling city like New York strengthened my understanding of transition, resilience, and what it means to start over. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns, and I’m especially passionate about supporting women during seasons of identity development and change. I use an integrative approach, drawing from CBT, somatic work, and mindfulness to tailor our work to your unique needs. I believe healing begins with self-awareness and self-compassion, and that the power to grow and create change already exists within you. Clients often describe our work together as warm, supportive, and grounding. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Sacred Heart University. Outside of therapy, I recharge through reading, Pilates or yoga, and spending time with my three dogs.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Clients can expect a warm, safe environment where they will be met where they’re at. I view therapy as a collaborative experience and believe that meaningful progress happens both in and outside of sessions. While our work together in session is important, I also encourage clients to practice skills and reflect between sessions through thoughtful, manageable tasks that support continued growth.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

*I offer Free 15 Min Consultation Calls to all New Clients. By booking on Zocdoc, you would be booking the Free 15 Min Consultation Call.* My approach to therapy is flexible and shaped by what each client needs in the moment. I like to let clients lead sessions and bring in what feels most important to them. I use an integrative approach, primarily drawing from CBT and person-centered therapy, and adjust interventions as needed. Sessions are collaborative and focused on supporting clients in a way that feels natural and responsive to where they are at.

Lexi really understands the challenges young women face. I felt seen, validated, and supported the entire time.
My session went very well - I was able to schedule for same day thank you
Lexi taught me how to show up differently in my relationships and communicate more clearly because of the work we did together. I'm very grateful for this.
I became more aware of my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors through sessions with Lexi, and learned how to work with them instead of feeling stuck.
Lexi helped me develop a level of self-awareness I didn’t have before. I’m much more intentional in how I respond to situations now.
Therapy didn’t stop at the session... I left with real tools I could use outside of therapy. Lexi taught me how to manage my thoughts instead of feeling controlled by them
