“Every session with Lex is better than the last. Given all the moving pieces we need to deal with and build our schedules around, I noted this week, at the end of our session, that I consider this a non-negotiable part of life. Thank you”

Getting to know Alexis Santiago

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I work with individuals navigating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, disordered eating, ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence, complex trauma, grief, and identity exploration. I create an affirming, collaborative space where clients of all ages feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow. I am especially passionate about LGBTQ+ affirming care and helping clients process the impact of systemic and institutional oppression. My approach is integrative and individualized, I use talk therapy with adults and psychodynamic play therapy with children, always tailoring treatment to reflect each person’s unique experiences and goals. I also offer consultation and support to parents and caregivers of young clients. Above all, I believe that clients are the experts on their own lives. Together, we build insight, develop meaningful tools, and deepen the connection to self, so each person can move forward with intention, confidence, and purpose.

I had a 30 minute session and my insurance was charged the full amount for an hour session.
I really enjoyed our conversation and I am looking forward to my next visit
I really loved my last visit and am so excited to continue going.
Alexis was very genuine, and even though it was my first visit I walked out feeling like a weight had started to lift off my shoulders a bit. I can't wait to see her on a regular basis.
Verified patient
Although I identified that we were seeking potential medication for my minor child, there was no one at the facility that could prescribe medication for a child. There was also no information about billing expectations. The therapist was pleasant.
She was 15 to 20 minutes late for all of our sessions, which was frustrating because we clicked and it felt like we were making progress
No
