Lex Singleton is a queer, genderqueer therapist who creates an affirming, collaborative space for teens, young adults, and LGBTQIA+ individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, identity development, and relationship struggles. Lex provides therapy in person in Irvine, CA and virtually throughout California through Affirming Psychological Services.
Lex is especially passionate about working with adolescents and young adults who are exploring their identities, dealing with emotional overwhelm, or recovering from harmful past experiences. They show up with warmth, curiosity, and respect, offering a space where clients can speak freely, set the pace, and feel genuinely supported without fear of judgment.
Lex’s therapeutic style blends person-centered, relational, and evidence-based care. Their approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), while also being deeply influenced by their belief in authenticity, collaboration, and empathy. Whether helping a client challenge unhelpful thoughts, process trauma, or build a healthier relationship with themselves, Lex works with intention and care to create a space where meaningful growth can happen.
As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Lex understands how important it is to feel safe, seen, and affirmed in therapy, especially for those who have experienced stigma, rejection, or religious trauma. They’re especially skilled at helping clients examine the ways relationships, culture, and personal history shape how they see themselves and relate to others.
Lex earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Chapman University and is currently pursuing a doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD) at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. They have several years of experience in mental health settings and are working toward future training in EMDR to deepen their trauma-informed work. They are supervised by licensed psychologist Dr. Katie Moore, PsyD (PSY #32941).
