Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Alyssa. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a License Professional Clinical Counselor-- say that five times fast.

I have a background in private practice, social work and school-based mental health. I help adults and teens who privately carry stress, relationship strain, or old patterns that no longer fit who they’re becoming. My work focuses on breaking cycles that feel hard to name but even harder to change. I offer thoughtful, steady support for people who want to be seen and understood, who want more intention, clarity, and emotional freedom in their lives.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, relational, and insight-driven. I integrate psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT to explore how past experiences shape present patterns — while also building practical tools for change. I believe meaningful therapy balances reflection with forward movement. You can expect honesty delivered with care, thoughtful pacing, and a collaborative process that respects both your strengths and your complexity.

What you can expect from me

The goal of the first session is to provide a calm, structured space that will allow you to slow down, unload some distress, and feel understood. We’ll talk through what’s bringing you in, what feels stuck, and what you hope will feel different. I’ll ask questions to try and get to know you, as well as help us see the bigger picture of your experience, while also identifying clear goals to guide our work. My intention is that you leave with a sense of relief and hope. You don’t have to sort this out alone.
