About Alexi

Alexi Tumey is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and emotional setbacks. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person. Her manner is warm, encouraging, and nonjudgmental so clients can raise hard topics without feeling judged.

Alexi draws on nine years of experience in healthcare and counseling settings. She blends practical skills with supportive coaching to address problems like depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family strain, trauma, and grief.

Background and approach

She also has experience with attention differences such as ADD and ADHD, and with autism-related concerns. In sessions she uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means she helps people spot unhelpful patterns, work through feelings, and try small, useful changes between meetings.

She will also share resources and referrals when extra services could help. Her style is direct but compassionate. She brings structure when needed and space for reflection as well.

Parents and adults who want concrete strategies and steady support often find this approach practical and accessible. Alexi provides services from Oklahoma and conducts sessions in English. She holds an Oklahoma Licensed Professional Counselor credential, listed as OK LPC LPC05913.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist creates a respectful, accepting space and follows the client's lead to set goals and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing new responses. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress by teaching concrete skills to try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful and doable for the client.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules or distance from office-based care. These options let people fit therapy into school, work, or caregiving routines while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional. The range of formats also makes it easier to try different ways of working until the best match is found.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
