I’m Allissa Tamiso, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Counseling from Central Connecticut State University. I know that you’re just trying to be happy, and it feels like happiness is harder than it should be. You see other people who seem to understand how to navigate life seamlessly, while you feel like you don’t quite get it, or that there are endless obstacles in your way. This is where our work begins. I have worked with folks struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, PTSD, ADHD, relationship issues and life transitions.

Sometimes, life deals us an awful hand with so many wounds and hurts that we have no idea how we'll get through. We feel sad, anxious, overwhelmed, angry, depressed and don't know how to move forward with that emotion. We find ourselves stuck in the same patterns and don't know how to change them. Frequently, our relationships struggle as a result. I believe in becoming whole and healing from these wounds and hurts. I believe each person has innate characteristics that make this healing possible. In therapy, our goal is to remove these constraints that prevent you from accessing your core Self and create a life that feels lighter.

Our minds are often full of made up stories we have been telling ourselves for years. Often, they are stories that have been written based on who others have told us we are or are "supposed" to be. My clients are those who want to rewrite the stories that create a sense of heaviness or limit their life experience, including stories full of anxiety and negative thoughts. I help those who are looking to find inner peace, clarity, a better understanding of themselves, and freedom from the heaviness our minds and life experiences can bring.

This practice is currently closed to new clients. My specialty is working with individual adults on building happier, healthier relationships with their partners, parents, children, friends, or co-workers. Many issues impact relationships: communication problems, infidelity, a pile-up of life stressors, physical or mental health issues, substance use, life-stage transitions, or patterns going back to the families we grew up in. Folks may come in for help with a current issue, or to gain insight into longstanding patterns.

Unfortunately, I’m not accepting new clients at this time. I have training and experience in treating symptoms related to trauma, anxiety, and depression. I love working collaboratively with people to identify and begin taking steps toward their goals. As a therapist trained in EMDR, I'm a big believer in the need to "go back" before we can move forward in a more healthy way. Therapy is an opportunity to begin to heal past wounds so that we can navigate life free from the negative thoughts and painful memories that can make it so difficult.

Therapy can be a valuable tool with a good fit. My motto that I have coined is “ Uncover, Discover and Discard. In therapy, I’ll collaboratively work with you to Uncover aspects of your life that may be preventing you from being the best version of yourself. Then we will Discover how negative, toxic, and unhealthful thoughts and behaviors manifest in your life and seek to create new ways of coping and develop strategies to replace those unhelpful behaviors and limiting beliefs. Last, we will Discard any unnecessary belief and/or behaviors that isn’t adding value to your life. Allow me to assist you on your healing journey.

We are all constantly changing. We may have already accomplished goals in our lives, yet are at a crossroads again. This time, we may wish to seek help, whether it’s to develop a goal, figure out what may be a little “off” in our life or maybe some direction with some heavier challenges. I specifically have experience working with substance use disorders, infant mental health and parent-child attachment. I've been trained in Infant Mental Health, Risking Connection, Seeking Safety as well as Circle of Security, but have worked with many individuals and families with varying reasons that brought them to therapy.

"The secret of change is to focus all your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new" [Socrates] My approach is to help individuals achieve their goals and overcome any obstacles that may be hindering their ability to live the happiest version of themselves.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
