About Alexandra

Alexandra "Lexy" Spett uses a blend of practical therapy approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, and life transitions. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 24 years of experience in California. Lexy speaks plainly and aims to make therapy feel clear and manageable for clients and parents.

How Alexandra works

She offers straightforward guidance for common struggles like family tension, low self-esteem, mood shifts, and finding life purpose. Sessions emphasize small, useful steps that add up over time. Her approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused strategies.

That mix helps people spot unhelpful thinking, understand repeated patterns, and set concrete short-term goals. Lexy works with parents to ease relational shifts and rebuild stronger, clearer communication with their young adults. Lexy’s style is warm, direct, and honest.

She aims to create a respectful environment where people can say what they mean and try new ways of handling things. The goal is practical change - more confidence, fewer cycles of shame or guilt, and clearer direction. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions that fit their lives.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs and rhythms.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Lexy often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people get unstuck. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or lift mood. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on practical steps and immediate goals so progress can be noticed quickly and built on.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s working and adjust the plan so the approach stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t convenient. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, progress notes, or times when a shorter touchpoint is needed between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, or parenting schedules and to keep continuity when life gets busy.
