Are you a teen or adult feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, life changes, difficult emotions, or experiences from the past? Maybe you feel stuck, unsure of yourself, or like you’re struggling to move forward. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood without judgment. I take the time to understand your story, your experiences, and what you need rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you while building insight, coping skills, and confidence to help you move forward.
My approach to therapy is flexible, compassionate, and centered around you. I don't believe therapy should look the same for everyone, so I draw from multiple evidence-based approaches based on your needs, goals, and where you are in the moment.
My goal isn't simply to help you get through what you're experiencing right now. I want to help you better understand yourself, process what has been weighing on you, and develop tools that continue to support you beyond therapy. I currently offer in-person and online therapy. Daytime availability is available with limited afternoon slots.
Take the first step to help. Call or Allyse Weidman now - (269) 205-8220

When appropriate, I incorporate EMDR into treatment to help clients process distressing experiences and reduce the impact those experiences continue to have in the present. EMDR can also be helpful for certain anxiety-related experiences and negative beliefs about yourself.
