Sometimes when it seems like things are falling apart, they really are falling into place. Hand in hand, I walk with my clients to help them discover improved coping skills and to process major life events. My style of therapy is client centered - I believe in non judgmental positive regard and processing issues together instead of the stereotypical therapist who asks "how does that make you feel?"

We want you to give yourself permission to shine and develop the future that you deserve. We accept you and honor your story and experience. We are all in this together, trying to find our way.

My approach to therapy is based on the idea that each person has gifts, passions and skills that can be tapped into to guide them toward an authentic, value-based life. My goal is to partner with you to provide a safe, non-judgmental space that allows for reflection, healing from past emotional wounds, and growth by establishing new coping skills to replace old patterns of thinking and behaving. I have extensive training in trauma and EMDR through the International Association (EMDRIA) as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

My goal as a therapist is to help guide people of all ages through their current life experiences. I utilize a strength-based approach, designed to bring my client's strengths to the forefront while encouraging development and processing the more difficult experiences and feelings impacting them. I aim to decrease the discomfort my client feels while striving to improve long term coping skills. I find success utilizing a trauma informed, relational approach. I work exceptionally well with those suffering from Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, maladaptive behaviors, and those who don’t really know what’s wrong, but want to figure it out.

There are times when living with anxiety or depression feels like trying to make it through your day with a heavy weight on your chest. No one else can see it, but it’s making it difficult to think clearly, rest, and find joy in life. Daily tasks, such as going to work, maintaining relationships, or caring for yourself or your kids become overwhelming. You may feel trapped and at a loss for where to go from here. You aren’t alone if you feel lost or struggle to get through the day. We all need help at different points in our lives, that’s part of being human.

We are the writers of our own story; therapy just provides an editor to sort out some of the more challenging parts of that story. I believe everyone's life experience is unique and, because of that, you truly know yourself best. All that being said, Hello! I am Alisa (ah-lee-sah), a licensed professional counselor.

I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, conflicts in relationships, and uncertainty in overcoming life’s many challenges. I place equal emphasis on developing a warm, trusting therapeutic relationship and on the practice of intense listening. This allows us to discover and explore aspects of your self that have been hidden away as a means of coping with distress. At present I am able to bill for Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) or work with you to establish a fee based on a sliding scale.
