I help queer and neurodivergent teens, young adults, and couples navigate identity, life transitions, and new diagnoses. Together, we’ll navigate self-discovery, trauma, and anxiety so you can show up authentically in your relationships and everyday life.

Therapy for Teens and Young Adults in Las Vegas

Are you a teen or young adult in Las Vegas navigating relationships, identity, life transitions, or new mental health diagnoses? You're not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. EMDR therapy, combined with other evidence-based approaches, can help you process past hurt, reduce emotional overwhelm, and move toward healing.

I’m Lexi (she/her), a therapist serving clients in Las Vegas and across Nevada. I specialize in supporting neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ folks, especially those who are managing the challenges of major life transitions, questions of identity, and the effects of past trauma. As an AuDHDer, myself, I understand how deeply these identities can shape the way that you see the world, and the way that the world sees you.

I’m passionate about helping neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ individuals and couples feel safe enough to explore deep topics, express their emotions, and develop a deeper sense of self without the pressure to mask or meet anyone else’s expectations.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected, or simply trying to make sense of it all, I offer a therapeutic space where you can show up as yourself.

Therapy for ADHD and Autistic Adults and Teens

High school and college are full of change and uncertainty. From academic pressure and social stress to family dynamics and questions of identity, it’s a lot to carry. Many of the clients I work with feel like they’re constantly “on,” performing for others while silently struggling with anxiety, sadness, or burnout.

Growing up ADHD or Autistic in a world that wasn't built for your brain can leave its own kind of imprint. Years of being told to try harder, sit still, or stop being "too much" can add up — even when no single moment stands out as traumatic on its own.

You might notice a harsh inner critic, a habit of masking who you really are, or reactions to rejection and criticism that feel bigger than the moment calls for, as old experiences of not fitting in get stirred up in the present. EMDR therapy helps process these accumulated experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional weight, helping you feel more secure in who you are and less reactive to criticism or rejection.

Many ADHD and Autistic teens and adults come to EMDR therapy in Las Vegas looking for support that goes beyond coping strategies—a space to process the impact of masking and years of feeling misunderstood, so they can move through the world with more confidence and self-acceptance.

Who I am, and how I got here:

I have always enjoyed the human mind, how it works, and how we can change and shape it. My path into counseling grew out of a passion for helping others make sense of their experiences, especially those navigating neurodivergence, identity development, and major life transitions. Along the way, I’ve worked with many incredible people. I most often work with queer teens, young adults, and new parents. I’ve learned that healing looks different for everyone, and that safety and affirmation are essential for growth. My lived experience includes being an AuDHD clinician, and a person navigating chronic illness.

Who I help:

I work with queer and neurodivergent individuals and couples who are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or adjusting to new or suspected diagnoses like ADHD or Autism. I also love supporting new moms navigating postpartum shifts. Whether you’re exploring your identity, building healthier relationships, or working through past experiences, I strive to create a space where you feel seen, safe, and supported.

How I help:

Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to mask or filter who you are. My style is warm, curious, and client-centered. I believe we are the experts of ourselves, and my goal is to guide clients in finding the strength and tools to utilize that expertise. I use a trauma-informed approach, blending DBT and CBT skills to help you manage overwhelm, improve emotional regulation, and build confidence as you move through life’s challenges.

Off the clock:

When I am not in sessions, I am usually spending time with my family. My favorite activities vary depending on the season. I enjoy spending time outside, often wishing I was at the beach. I love to sit down with a good book and an iced coffee. When it's too cold outside, you can find me binge watching a new show under a warm blanket. :)"
