As a Doctor in Nursing Practice, I have been in healthcare for over ten years, which has prepared me to manage my patients with evidence-based treatment modalities. I bring compassion and commitment to my practice of caring for the holistic needs of my patients, which entails a comprehensive assessment and evaluation of the patient’s psychological, emotional, and physical well-being, also creating a plan of care that will optimize a favorable outcome in a realistic, goal-oriented length of time, with the patient’s buy-in.
I am objective as it applies to one’s life.
Further, I am non judgemental. I help one to find their way to healing and wholeness.
Welcome! I’m Dr. Alysia Sierra, a clinical psychologist with nearly 10 years in private practice. I am also a certified mindfulness meditation teacher. Areas of expertise include anxiety disorders, PTSD & attachment trauma; relationship struggles; perfectionism and codependency; imposter syndrome and burnout; substance use disorders; OCD. I have extensive expertise working with: high achievers, healthcare providers, first responders, athletes/performing artists, parents who feel stuck.
I specialize in medication management in treating mood, anxiety, psychotic, and substance use disorders. In the past, I worked as an RN in a dual diagnosis inpatient psychiatric unit. Recently, I have working in an outpatient private practice.
Most of us never saw healthy communication growing up—and that makes connection feel harder than it should. As your relationship therapist/coach, I help individuals and couples develop relational competence so you can break old patterns, communicate with clarity, and create more secure and nurturing relationships.
- I'm not taking new couples clients at this time.
- My in-person days: Tuesdays, Thursdays.
- My online days: Monday afternoon, Wednesday morning, Fridays.
I have a master's degrees in clinical mental health counseling, a graduate certificate in child and adolescent psychology, and specialty training in trauma therapies. My clinical experience began in 2019, working with people of all ages and genders facing various challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, and suicidality. I work with children and adolescents as a speciality area in my practice and enjoy helping everyone discover new ways to navigate life stressors.
Life can be messy, and I specialize in helping mamas and survivors of trauma navigate through complicated and uncharted waters. I believe we are all working to be our best selves, and with support and strategies you will get there - you are not alone, and there is hope.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Laurel, MD
Searching for therapists in Laurel starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to address. People often look for therapy in Laurel, MD for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare local counselors, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Laurel is a smaller city, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger parts of Maryland. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand communication style, session structure, and what to expect from therapy.
Therapy in Laurel can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and offer in-person or virtual care. You can review profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
