My name is Alyssa, I'm an LCSW who is passionate about people and their mental health. I completed my MSW at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2022 and have been seeing clients ever since. I am trained in a variety of modalities ranging from ACT and DBT to inner child work, CBT, and MI. I would classify my work as eclectic due to my belief that every client with whom I work is unique and deserves individualized and collaboratively created treatment.
I'm a humanist to my core. This results in me offering an authentic, calm, and accepting space where clients and I can process and work through challenges in partnership. I believe people are experts in their own lives and subsequently focus on listening and guiding in order to help facilitate self-reflection and discovery.
Typically an initial session is 53 minutes and involves answering any client questions, discussing confidentiality, and completing an initial assessment with the goal of getting to know the client, including their hopes and goals for therapy.
