Great to meet you!

My name is Alyssa and I am a clinical social worker in Michigan. I have enjoyed working in both a private practice and within Michigan's corrections environment. Doing both has afforded me the opportunity to truly work with people from every walk of life and in every possible life circumstance.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best when it feels real. I create a space where people can be fully themselves, without filters or judgment. My approach is straightforward and down-to-earth. I’m not here to hand out quick fixes or sugarcoat the hard stuff. Together, we’ll dig into what’s actually getting in the way and find ways to move through it.

What you can expect from me

At the end of session, my goal is for you to walk away feeling understood and like you have direction.
