You desire a more fulfilling relationship or sex life. Maybe it is a challenge to directly express your needs and you get stuck in repeating arguments that go nowhere. Perhaps you struggle with loss of passion or experience sexual anxiety. You may wonder how you can ask your partner for better emotional support, appreciation, alone time or good sex. If you're an expat or immigrant, or if you're in an intercultural relationship, you may run up against cultural differences. If you're in a non-traditional or open relationship, maybe you find it a challenge to navigate different values and relationship styles.

If you are ready to explore who you are, reach your goals, and find self-awareness, I am ready to help guide you.

I approach therapy from a standpoint of non-judgmental curiosity and an anti-oppression lens. You are the expert in your own life, and I am committed to walking the path toward happiness and understanding with you.

For over 20 years, I have worked with a diverse population of adults including those who are HIV+ and with the LGBTQ community.

Alyssa is a relationship therapist who helps individuals & couples reconnect with themselves and each other through healing complex trauma, grief, chronic anxiety & toxic relationship patterns. I help clients slow down from their busy lives that leave little space to breathe or make choices with clarity, often clouded by an anxious street of thoughts or floating numbly with disconnection while over-scheduling to avoid pain. We explore and shift how expectations and circumstances may come at the expense of clarity and fulfillment from a safe foundation of connection that promotes safe communication, growth and healing.

I like to think of therapy from a Body-Mind-Spirit perspective, a holistic approach that invites all our parts into the healing process, creating opportunities for change and growth.

I combine elements of Western psychotherapy, Neuroscience and Eastern traditions. I draw from 20+ years of meditation, yoga, spirituality, and coaching background as well as extensive training in traditional and psychosensory psychotherapy: IFS, EMDR, Brainspotting, Mindfulness, Havening Technique, CBT
