New to Grow
Hello. I am Alissa Dillon. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in New Hampshire. I am licensed to treat patients in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Maine. I have over twenty years of experience as a therapist and enjoy working with patients who allow me to learn of their traumatic memories, and allow me to help reprocess them, to begin healing.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I enjoy getting to know my patients during the first session. My goal is not to jump right into distressing memories, unless that is what you, the patient, wants.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I am honest and can be direct for some patients who may need a little 'push' to work through their issues or history. I am also empathic and understand every person processes grief and trauma differently.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I treat adults with PTSD/Grief symptoms are having difficulty with sadness, nightmares or flashbacks. Sometimes a loss is so devastating or traumatic. EMDR is a quick and effective treatment for trauma, often within a few sessions. I also specialize in treating Veterans and First Responders who could benefit from trauma treatment, due to the difficult memories or events that continue to cause disruption to daily functioning.
