Alyssa Martinez

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


I work with individuals and couples to overcome spiritual and self-esteem issues, change unhealthy patterns, improve relationships, and find healthy ways to cope with the pain of the past, the present and the future. I utilize an integrative approach, drawing upon a variety of orientations including a trauma-informed perspective, psychodynamic approach, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based interventions. Through self-exploration, we can work to remain in the present moment, get back into the body, shift limiting beliefs and identify a fresh perspective that aligns with your inner-most goals and values.

Angela Bassett

Angela Bassett

Therapist

Virtual • Sedona, AZ


I believe healing is possible—even when you've been struggling for years. My approach is grounded in the understanding that symptoms such as addiction, anxiety, trauma responses, or emotional overwhelm are not signs that something is wrong with you; they are adaptations that once helped you survive.

As a Licensed Independent Addictions Counselor & psychotherapist, EMDR Certified therapist, and Somatic Experiencing practitioner with a background in yoga and mindfulness, I help clients heal not only through insight, but by working with the nervous system, the body, and the deeper patterns/memories/beliefs that keep them feeling stuck. My goal is to help you move beyond surviving so you can reconnect with your authentic self and create a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with your values.

I bring warmth and genuine curiosity to every session. My work centers on helping people navigate anxiety, depression, and the lasting effects of trauma — and I believe that healing happens best when you feel truly heard. I take time to understand what matters most to you before we ever talk about a treatment plan, because good care has to fit your life, not just your diagnosis. My approach is collaborative: we figure things out together. I want you to leave each session feeling more capable, not more dependent on me. If you are ready to feel like yourself again, I am here to help you get there.
