I am Dr Lex McDonald, a registered psychologist and teacher and have provided therapy, counselling and professional development services for many years in New Zealand and overseas. I studied at Victoria University of Wellington NZ, and University of Canterbury in Christchurch, NZ. I qualified for my BA (sociology and educational psychology) and teacher qualifications in Christchurch and undertook my Post-Graduate Diploma in Educational Studies (Educational Psychology) and MA (School Psychology) with distinction at Victoria University of Wellington. My PhD, researching organisational behaviour of professionals in an educational context, was also awarded by Victoria University of Wellington.
I look forward to guiding you in a discovery of seeking an intrinsic being in yourself and/or your child and devising a plan to live a most congruent and authentic life.
Please call or email Psychlex to arrange an initial appointment via Zoom or face to face.
During your first appointment, Lex will discuss your concerns and develop a plan with you.
By putting these new strategies into practice, you will be better prepared to face life’s challenges

Thank you for your help with Jeremy. We had real worries about his schoolwork. Most appreciative of the work you did with him and the teacher. It seems to be working and he is definitely much happier now.”
