Hi there, and welcome. I’m so glad you found your way here. My name is Dr. Alyssa, and I am a licensed clinical psychologist in California, New York, and Texas. I am deeply passionate about helping adolescents, young adults, and their families not just survive—but truly thrive. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, as well as anxiety, trauma, and ADHD which often accompany eating disorders. My approach is personalized, no two individuals —or families—are the same, and my role is to walk alongside you with warmth, compassion, and clinical expertise to create a safe and supportive space where transformation is possible.
I am trained in evidence-based treatments, including FBT, CBT-E, TF-CBT, DBT, PMT, and CBT for Adult ADHD. While these models provide a strong foundation, I also integrate mind-body approaches—including yoga and mindfulness. This integration helps clients not only reduce symptoms, but also feel more present, empowered, and deeply connected with themselves.
My model of care is intentionally personalized and concierge-style, designed to create an experience that feels supportive at every step. This means: • You and your family won’t feel like “just another case.” • Sessions are tailored to your needs and preferences. In this space you can exhale, knowing that knowing you are in compassionate and capable hands.
