I am a licensed clinical psychologist experienced with children, adolescents, adults and couples. My approach is pragmatic - meaning I focus on doing what works! I'm trained in several types of therapy, so I might combine cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with mindfulness-based therapies (
ACT
, DBT) or traditional "talk" therapies to get the best results. I'm active in sessions and will always check in with you to make sure you're getting the most out of therapy. I also enjoy working with kids and families offer parent support and coaching.

Hi, I’m Alyssa! I help women heal their anxiety & panic attacks, overcome negative self-talk & increase their confidence, so they can live happier & more fulfilled lives. Does any of this sound like you? You're having anxiety or panic attacks & don't know why. No matter how hard you try, you can't stop your racing or negative thoughts. Things you used to love (traveling, meeting new people) are now scary. You want to be more assertive & create boundaries but don't know how. You're always worrying, overthinking & doubting yourself. You're exhausted but can't sleep. You compare yourself to others & shame spiral on social media.

My approach to counseling stems from the belief that we are all doing the best we can, and will flourish if given the right tools. I help clients take an overwhelming, undefinable 'problem', and break it down into manageable pieces that are easy to understand. That, in turn, allows us to target the factors that are contributing to the problem, and identify the skills that need to be strengthened. Whether it be anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships, behavioral challenges or another mental health concern, this approach arms clients with the tools they need to thrive after therapy has concluded.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
