Hi, I’m Alyssa! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Masters in Social Work from Southeastern University. I work with women in their 20s and 30s who are navigating big questions about identity, relationships, career, confidence, and boundaries. Whether you're processing a breakup, feeling stuck in a job, struggling with self-doubt, or wondering why you keep repeating the same patterns, we’ll explore it together—with curiosity, compassion, and maybe even some humor.

As a licensed professional counselor (LPC), I am dedicated to supporting marginalized communities and BIPOC individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma. I blend clinical rigor with a compassionate, client-centered approach to create therapy that feels supportive, practical, and empowering.

I hope my clients upon meeting me see that I am warm and welcoming and patient with their concerns and needs.

I hope they feel safe knowing I have 30 years in the field and will assist them in their journey with appropriate approaches to assist in reduction of symptoms and or learning more about who they are so they can navigate their life with better skills

My mission is that I want you to be excited about your life! Naturally, people seeking therapy and life coaching want a desired result. I am a mash up of Positive & Humanistic Psychology, an experienced clinician with a trauma-informed approach. Grounded in openness, honesty, trust, humor and confidentially. My passion is to empower you to recognize that you can become the hero of your own life.

My journey stems from my own story of resilience in the face of hardships. I became a therapist because I have always wanted to help people through some of their darkest hours. Being exposed to some dark hours myself, I know that it is difficult to do it alone. When you have someone to confide in, assist you through the hard times, and just let you know that you are not alone, makes a difference.

My therapeutic approach includes CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, Relational Therapy, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, SFT, EFT, IFS, and just speaking like a human being. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space where you can feel safe, seen, and supported. My approach is relational and personalized—we'll explore your story together, build coping tools, and move toward healing with curiosity, courage, and care.

Therapy with me is real, down-to-earth, and never boring. I mix honesty, humor, and heart to make the process comfortable. I help adults manage emotions, build confidence, and tackle life's challenges with tools that work. Think of it as a safe space to be yourself, grow, and maybe laugh along the way.
