Lexi Widenhouse

Hey! I’m Lexi, I’m grateful you are here, and I hope you are proud of yourself for being here, too. 

I have provided child-centered, individual, and family therapy to children ages 4 years to 18 years, with much of my experience being with middle-school-aged children and their families. I utilize a person-centered, integrated approach in my therapeutic practice and I prioritize the individual needs of my clients. I lead with genuine curiosity, accurate empathy, playfulness, and the desire to understand in order to provide compassionate care. 

I value your willingness to allow me to be a part of your child and family’s lives in such meaningful and, at times, vulnerable ways. I believe my clients are the experts in their lives, and I provide support in helping children and families become the best versions of themselves in whichever ways best suit their needs and interests. I look forward to working with you!
