Lexi Kruggel, LICSW

(She / They)

Contracted Therapist

Hi there! My name is Lexi, and I am so glad you are here. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have experience working with adults in both individual and group settings. I proudly identify as a queer therapist and am committed to creating a space for you to bring all parts of your identity to be seen, heard, understood, and celebrated.

The therapeutic relationship we will develop together plays an essential role in establishing a safe space for you to do the work you want to do. Relationships are where we heal, and for so many of us, relationships are also where our greatest hurts have occurred. I believe in the power of unpacking the impacts of those hurts so you can learn new ways of relating to yourself and others. I see the therapeutic relationship as a safe practice ground for you to gain the insight and skills needed to build and live the life you want.

My therapeutic style is centered in a relational, person-centered approach, while drawing from the following modalities: Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative Therapy, Attachment Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Using somatic-based interventions will also be integral in our work to support you in attending to the mind-body connection that exists within you.

I truly believe you will be the only expert of your life in our work together. I will be there to support you, guide you, and challenge you in ways that support your desired growth and healing. It will be my honor to join you on your journey.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my partner, friends, and family. Some of my hobbies include playing guitar/writing music, reading, and playing golf. I also have a cat named Oliver who brings me so much joy!

If you have questions about anything I’ve talked about here, or if you feel it would be helpful to connect before scheduling an initial session, I am more than happy to do so. Reach out and we can find a time to have a 15-minute phone call to see if we are a good fit for the work you want to do!
