Hey, I’m Alyssa.
One of the hardest parts of life is having to keep going, even when everything feels overwhelming.
Whether in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood, there are moments when we feel like we’ve lost our footing. These times can feel heavy, but you don’t have to face them alone. When life gets hard, it can be beneficial to have someone to talk to—a nonjudgmental and safe space to share your thoughts and feelings. I would love to be that person for you.
Through therapy, we will explore how your past experiences affect your present life. You may have noticed problems arising in your relationships, at work, or home. I am a trauma-informed client-centered therapist and will use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Adlerian Therapy. I have a relaxed style, but can also be direct when necessary. My goal is to provide a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to grow. Therapy will be tailored to your stage of life and individual needs.
I graduated from Sam Houston State University with my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have worked in community mental health care and throughout the criminal justice system, serving both juveniles and adults. I have led a group at a woman’s shelter and have worked with young adults who have aged out of the foster care system. I have experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, addiction, trauma, complex trauma, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and severe mental illnesses.
If you're ready to begin, I'm here to work with you at your pace.
