Hi- I'm Allyssa, a Taylor Swift fan, Fantasy reader, and cat lover. Bring a cup of coffee, a snack, and show up however you need; and I will always show up as my genuine self as well — humor and all. I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely safe, connected, and able to show up exactly as they are — messy thoughts, dark humor, and even overthinking. My approach is warm, relational, and rooted in the belief that our experiences shape us, but do not define us. I have a passion for working with adult women and teenagers.

With over thirty years experience in El Paso and Teller counties working with individuals, families and groups, I believe that difficulties often bring us to a place of change. Change comes with an assortment of feelings: relief, fear, sometimes both. My personal background is rich in diversity and experience. With unconditional acceptance and compassion for my clients, I am known for my work with a variety of people. We identify the problem and then focus on solutions together. I am a licensed family therapist with level III certification in addictions counseling and experience working with individuals and groups as well.

My clients say that I am a relaxed and accepting therapist, prepared to listen to them and respond to their concerns with insight and strategies for change. I operate from the understanding that our lives are an ongoing process of creation, some of which may fall outside of our usual awareness, but in which we may learn to take an effective, guiding role. Therapy works to identify and alter the motivations and misunderstandings which promote interpersonal conflicts and behavioral problems, and result in the experience of anxiety and depression in our daily lives.

Therapy starts with a simple conversation and me seeking to learn your unique perspective, needs, and goals. You may or may not know exactly what your are looking for. You might feel anything from complete comfort to terror in taking this step. I am great at helping people feel comfortable & asking the right questions to develop shared understanding. This will continue throughout treatment, so that we are always increasing awareness and achievement. This does not happen instantly, but in stages. I will support you to ensure you move at a pace best suited to your needs and comfort level.

I believe that everyone experiences stress, trauma, crisis, grief, sadness, anger and frustration at some point. We all handle these experiences and emotions differently and sometimes we may not know how to find our way back to happiness and wholeness. None of us are perfect and it’s ok to ask for help.

Adults often seek counseling during seasons when life feels overwhelming, uncertain, or difficult to navigate alone. Many come while struggling with anxiety, chronic stress, or relationship challenges. Others feel stuck professionally, disconnected from their sense of purpose, or unsure how to move forward during major life transitions such as parenting, empty nest, career dissatisfaction, or retirement. Many clients are also exploring deeper questions about identity, meaning, or faith and are looking for a thoughtful place to reflect, gain clarity, and begin moving toward healthier and more meaningful lives.

Clear Path Behavior, LLC
Board Certified Behavior Analyst, EdS, NCSP, BCBA
Colorado Springs, CO 80906
My ideal clients are parents of children and teens who aren’t making the progress they could, often because support at home doesn’t yet match what the child needs. Families come in feeling stuck—dealing with school avoidance, emotional outbursts, shutdown, or ongoing power struggles. I work directly with caregivers to clarify what’s driving behavior and coach real-time, practical responses. Together, we build strategies that reduce conflict, increase consistency, and help progress carry over across home and school.

You are not broken. Trauma can shape how we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us. We can carry patterns shaped by early experiences and environments we had to adapt to. These adaptations can be lifesaving, but over time we can feel stuck or broken. I work with adults ready to recalibrate these responses through a mind-body, trauma-informed lens. I believe healing is not about repairing what is broken, but reclaiming the wholeness of who we are. Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you deserve support that honors your whole self.

I am not the typical therapist. I am the person people reach out to when things have not worked. When you have tried to do it the right way, had the conversations, done the therapy, and still find yourself in the same place.
