Lex D’Angelo, RP(Q)
they/them/she/her
Hi, I’m Lex! I work from a person-centred approach first and foremost - you are the expert of your own life and I want to respect and honour that truth. I want to work alongside you in
collaboration to uncover and celebrate your authenticity and inner wisdoms. I work at the crossroads of mental health and social justice, and so, much of my practice is grounded in anti-oppressive practice, trauma- informed care, advocacy and activism. My practice is anti-racist, identity-affirming, sex, poly and kink positive, and sex work positive.
I pull from a variety of approaches in the care I provide to folks depending on what the person in front of me is experiencing in their life, what they are hoping to get out of therapy, and what
they are wanting therapy to look like for them. The skills and modalities that I have training and
experience in providing include: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy skills, Dialectical Behaviour
Therapy skills, Compassion-Focused Therapy skills, Harm Reduction practices, and Trauma-Focused Somatic Therapy skills. I am currently pursuing a diploma in Expressive Arts Therapy which also informs my practice. Together, we’ll work to build a safe(r) space that works for you!
