Great to meet you!

Hi there! I’m Dr. Alderman, and I bring over 20 years of counseling experience, along with a unique, trauma-informed approach to supporting my clients.

My approach to therapy

My counseling style is client-centered with a nontraditional, flexible approach tailored to your unique needs and goals. I meet you where you are, adapting our work together to support your growth in a way that feels both effective and authentic to you.

What you can expect from me

After our first session, you can expect to begin shifting your mindset and feeling more open to the journey of healing. My goal is for you to leave with greater clarity, a sense of direction, and a renewed motivation to move forward. I look forward to working with you!
