Welcome to GrowTherapy Telehealth and the virtual practice of Clinicians Group Corporation and Alysia S. Ross, M.S., LMHC, MAC, Florida Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist. I'm happy that you reached out for assistance and understand that it is sometimes incredibly challenging to find a licensed professional who connects with you when a time of guidance is needed or in a moment of crisis. I am here to provide assistance. My clinical practice utilizes a practical, interactive, solution-focused discipline as a licensed mental health professional with twenty-seven (27) years experience. My treatment approach is to provide support to assist clients in resolving current problems and long-standing patterns. I log in once a day Monday through Friday and am off on Saturday and Sunday. I generally respond to your messages between the hours of 12:00pm and 5:00pm EST.
I am excited to start your therapeutic journey with you and will assist you each step of the way. To begin, the initial session will include an assessment and any variety of questions you may have. Starting this process can leave you with some uncertainty so please ask any questions that may come up for you. I will explain the process and go over protocols and procedures with you during your initial week.
I have been gifted with patience and am a good listener; hence, when convenient, please visit my calendar to schedule your initial assessment. If you need assistance, I’d be happy to oblige.
