Great to meet you!

My name is Alyssa and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Substance Use Disorder Professional local to the greater Seattle area. I am a co-occuring therapist working with individuals from a social work framework and integrated components of behavioral health treatment and harm reduction. I often work with Patients who are surviving traumas, chronic illness, chronic pain, disabilities, and addiction.

My approach to therapy

I practice firmly from a perspective of person-centered, trauma-informed, and harm-reductive care with the goal of working towards each person's individualized goals. I specialize in working with individuals who are experiencing chronic pain and chronic illness, trauma, and addiction. I am also experienced in working with people who are managing challenging relationships and family systems, identity exploration, medication change, life transitions, and crisis management.

What you can expect from me

My preference is to integrate tailored therapeutic approaches into a realistic and conversational tone to help you address your assessed needs and self-defined goals.
