About Alexandra
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 24 years of experience, Alexandra "Lexy" Spett focuses on stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She works directly with late adolescents (16-19), young adults (20-30), and their parents, and she sometimes sees adults aged 35-64 on a case-by-case basis.
Lexy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions tend to mix practical skills with time to look at underlying patterns. She helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, and then try new ways of responding.
Many clients come for help with family problems, family of origin issues, or the shifts that happen when young people become more independent. Lexy also supports people dealing with emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Her approach is direct and straightforward. She sets clear goals and checks progress along the way. Parents and young adults often address relationship boundaries, communication, and changes in roles.
Lexy draws on decades of practice to balance short-term problem solving with deeper exploration. She helps people build coping skills and also look at long-standing patterns that affect mood and motivation. Sessions are practical and focused on what a person wants to change next.

How Lexy uses CBT, Psychodynamic, and Solution-Focused work online
Lexy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, and it often helps with anxiety, low mood, and stress by teaching concrete strategies to try between sessions.She also uses Psychodynamic Therapy to look at longer-standing patterns and relationships that shape current feelings. This approach helps when people want to understand recurring conflicts, family of origin issues, or why certain situations trigger strong reactions.
Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set clear, near-term goals and try small changes that lead to quick improvements. It suits people who want focused, actionable steps and measurable progress over a few sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the first sessions. The therapist will work collaboratively to clarify goals, test methods, and adjust the plan based on what the client prefers and what works best. That collaboration helps keep sessions relevant and goal-directed.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discussing practical limits like bandwidth, camera use, or session length helps tailor sessions to everyday life.
