Hi, I am Alissa. Have you ever felt trapped in your own brain? Feel like your emotions are running away with your life? I help individuals to learn how to control their thoughts and emotions so they are able to enrich their lives with relationships, stress, and emotional balance. I am a LCSW who specializes in anxiety, Borderline, depression, relationship issues, and emotional distress among other things. I love to work with the strength base module and a Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) model. I believe that therapy is a relationship and that trust is important in order for you to get what you want and need out of therapy.
In our first session we will fill out the intake form and walk through it together with the main focus being to get to know each other and start to build a relationship.
I feel my biggest strengths are helping individuals to see things from a different perspective allowing them to decrease their emotional reactions and have more clarity when they make decisions.
I really enjoy working with women, age 18-65 the most

Alissa is great at asking the questions to get to the root of the issue. Very warm and helpful.

She was nice but asked me the same question multiple times. Within just a few minutes. It was very strange. She jumped to conclusions and went off on tangents. It was a very odd experience.

Alissa was very kind, understanding and caring. I have only met with her one time but felt completely at ease talking to her.
