Hi, I'm Dr. Alysha! Are you ready to Empower your Mental Health? By creating a safe place for processing and expression, I support persons on their unique healing journey to strengthen authenticity and resiliency. My overall approach uses psychodynamic talk therapy, offering space to those wanting to explore new perspectives, reframes, and change. When we internalize or suppress our emotions and experiences of adversity, we may be faced with lasting emotional trauma that impacts our entire well-being. However there is power in validation and relatability and that is why I utilize a client-centered, strengths-based method, with consideration for relational, intersectional, and social justice contexts. I don’t consider myself an advice giver, but instead, I will collaborate with you to recognize your choices and help you make the best one for yourself. My objective is for you to feel empowered by reducing emotional burdens, developing coping strategies, identifying resources, and enhancing your strengths. You will be treated with respectful, objective, non-biased assistance. I believe that with the right amount of support, guidance, and compassion, our capabilities are endless. **Please note Relational Therapy (couples and families) is Cash Only at $200 per session. Individual cash sessions are $150**
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Although this is a professional relationship, we'll be discussing sensitive subjects. For that reason, the first few sessions are getting to know one another, learning about your family and personal history, likes and dislikes, and you're welcome to ask me questions, too. Throughout your healing journey, I don't tend to have rigid structure and I don't often assign homework. I like sessions to flow as needed, talking about current stressors impacting your health and life, to minimize the time you are affected by it. We will also draw connections to past experiences that may be informing your current perspective or behavior. My goal is for you to graduate when you are feeling empowered, with the awareness that you can return to treatment at any time for more support as needed.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I have consistently received feedback about my listening skills and validation, I want everyone to feel seen, heard, and respected. I would describe my strengths as empathetic, compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with clients who identify as Black/African Americans, as well as other cultural backgrounds. I enjoy clients who are ready to be challenged, ready to put in the work to become the best version of themselves. The healing journey can be uncomfortable at times, but growth and change requires things to be shaken up, to make room for something greater.
Psychodynamic
My style is more fluid in talk therapy, processing current stressors so that they don't impact us longer than necessary. While also exploring historical experiences to understand how they're influencing current feelings and perspectives.

Dr. Alysha is always really kind. She validates my feeling and sees my point of view. She always makes sure to keep the conversation going and it’s easy to spend an entire session talking to her about what’s going on in my life. I tend to jump back and fourth a bit and she gives me space to get all my thoughts out, and is good at circling back with me to make sure we cover everything I’m wanting to.
