Life isn't always easy and our expectations are often different than we imagined. I help couples, pre-marital couples & individuals in many of these life circumstances, such as infidelity, trauma, depression, anxiety, also feeling like you are not good enough, not worthy. If you want to grow and achieve your goals for your life I would be honored to help you. How you overcome these obstacles should define you, not the hurt.

Hello and welcome! During various seasons in our lives, strength, meaning, hope, joy, empowerment, compassion, and connection can be hard to find within ourselves and with others. My role as a licensed clinical psychologist is to help you on your journey towards healing, self-reflection, understanding, and positive change. Life throws all sorts of challenges our way, and as humans it is necessary, normal, and natural to need help. I am committed to fostering a safe space where your journey is honored, and your identity is celebrated. I value collaboration, flexibility, authenticity, and being human with you in the therapeutic space.

Now able to accept new clients again. Thanks for your patience! I will provide a safe place and work with you, beside you, as you work on defining/becoming your best self. Stuck? Change is difficult, but possible. There is no judgment here--lest I be judged. I believe everyone is doing the best they can with the tools they have. Many of us are just in need of additional tools. I believe we are products of our families of origin and carry forward what we learned from them--healthy or unhealthy. If you're stuck, I'd like to help you get unstuck. A sense of humor is a must.

You long for more out of life. Most days you wake up and think, “How did I get here? I’m not where I want to be.” You exhaust yourself with the monotonous tasks of everyday work. You have trouble focusing on new information. You never have the energy left to do anything you truly enjoy. It’s not just work that has you exhausted either. You’re plagued by intrusive memories. Life seems to no longer be within your control. You tend to lose sight of good things and people in front of you. However, there is hope for healing and transformation. You can still build a fulfilling life. A life where each day brings happiness and excitement.

My style is client-centered, authentic and strengths-based. I will be a catalyst for helping you to see and understand yourself, so that you can live your life at your highest potential. Through active listening, empathy, and validation of experience, we will uncover the courage and skills you have within you in order to achieve positive, lasting change.

While talk therapy offers critical and necessary support during overwhelming periods of life, some of us feel as if life contains an "overwhelming period" on a nearly daily basis. Neurodivergent Therapies' owner (Alyson "Rae" Pittman, LPC) began wondering how the efficacy of therapy could be improved and the needed timeline shortened. One treatment addition for both of these goals is Neurofeedback (NFB) Training, a non-invasive and non-medication option for teaching your brain the rhythms, patterns, and "dance steps" your brain has yet to effectively learn.

I am an attachment-based therapist in NWA who relies on evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches to work with clients of all backgrounds, sexualities, ethnicities and ages. I use emotion-focused therapy, client-centered therapy, and am trained in hypnosis/trance work. LGBTQIA+ affirming.

You will be the reason your life finally changes, and your journey starts today! Whether you are facing new challenges, experiencing life transitions, struggling with overwhelming anxieties, or seeking to create and become the best version of yourself, you've arrived at the right place. I believe that you already possess the ability to navigate through life's difficulties and hardships, and I hope to walk beside you as you work to break free from unhealthy, restrictive thought patterns and unlock your true potential.

Life is full of twists and turns that can leave us feeling unsure of the path ahead and sometimes even unsure of who we are. Are you feeling anxious, down, or just not like yourself lately? Perhaps painful memories weigh heavy on your mind and heart. Whether you are feeling stuck, in crisis or preparing for a change, I am here to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to better understand yourself and your path forward, to increase your capacity to navigate difficult life events, overcome fear and anxiety, heal from past trauma wounds— and ultimately experience more meaning and fulfillment in your life.

Immediate Openings Available. Healing has its greatest chance of success when paired with a strong, compassionate, and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. If you prefer the spaciousness of a session to allow for deeper internal exploration and understanding, then you may be my ideal client. Support is a vital aspect towards change and your therapist should be an important part of that. My approach is guided by compassion and confidence in the internal wisdom, that when fostered, facilitates the healing process. Are you ready for THIS kind of journey?

Today, more than ever, we all face changes and challenges on a daily basis. Coping with life stressors, healing from trauma, processing grief & loss, and learning to accept & embrace our unique selves are among the many topics I often address with clients.

Life is full of ups and downs that can be overwhelming at times. While learning to manage and adapt is important to personal growth, so is having someone walk that journey with you. I base my therapeutic approach around building a solid foundation of trust and acceptance with my clients. I value individuality and will encourage first and foremost that you accept “you as you” and not what today’s societal norms tell you what you should or shouldn’t be. I look forward to working with you and/or your family and being a resource to help you continue your journey.

Do you feel lost, or like you don't belong? Do you feel different from those around you? Has socialization become a draining performance?

Maybe you are struggling to understand their experience. What if you knew you weren’t alone? I believe I can help you. We can work on the things that are making you feel overwhelmed now, as we work towards long term change.

You want to feel confident, strong, and in control of your life. You want to get to the root of what's keeping you stuck and feeling small. You want to feel like you can be yourself in your relationships, and not keep falling into shame spirals that drain you. You've tried so many things to help you become more assertive and stop taking on other people's problems. Books, deep breathing, and all the coping skills in the world only help temporarily, or not at all. You feel overwhelmed, fearful, disconnected, and misunderstood and you can't figure out why.

I’m semi-retired, but accepting clients on the Alma website. I specialize in trauma and addiction and am LGBTQ-friendly.

It can be really tough to reach out and make that first step in seeking a better quality of life. Everyone needs someone in their corner, whether it be to listen or provide an unbiased perspective to work towards positive life changes. Maybe it's needing someone that doesn't judge you, knowing that, here, you are accepted for exactly who you are. Here, you get to let that out and work on being you in all areas of your life.

Deciding to get counseling is a brave step. It takes courage to risk being vulnerable with a stranger, but seeking an ally to help when you feel stuck or overwhelmed is a sign of mental health. As a counselor, I seek to form a partnership of equals with clients. I have been on both sides of the counseling relationship, and I know how powerful it can be to connect in a validating and supportive environment. I love counseling in part because I often learn as much from my clients as I have from being a client myself.
