Do you feel overwhelmed and emotionally exhausted by life’s challenges? Are those challenges affecting your day-to-day life? Do you think you “should” be happy but can’t figure out why you’re not? These are all normal thoughts and feelings and navigating them shouldn’t be so hard! Processing the struggles and transitions we face with a professional can help. It might mean learning to set boundaries, working through a life transition or changing a pattern that is keeping you stuck.
Hi! I'm Alyssa and I am a licensed clinical social worker and geriatric mental health therapist who is passionate about helping older adults and caregivers navigate life and its challenges. I specialize in depression, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, cultural issues, and life transitions. My goal is to provide compassionate care that will help you feel supported, seen, and heard.
I am a Christian Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My faith in the Holy Trinity of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit greatly shape my life, and my work. I believe you have everything you need within you to achieve your goals and heal.
I am a licensed clinical social worker and I have over 18 years of experience working with children, adults, and families who have been diagnosed with mental health challenges along with substance abuse disorders. I specialize in working with the adolescent population but also enjoy working with adults and families. I enjoy seeing individuals set goals and meet them and be successful navigating daily challenges using the skills obtained in therapy.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience, I have learned that people are more complicated than a diagnosis, a history, or a list of things that have gone "wrong." Therapy should be a place where you can be honest, curious, and fully yourself. You shouldn't have to worry about saying the 'right thing', or knowing exactly what you want out of the experience.
I am a warm, compassionate therapist with over 10 years of experience working in mental health with both children and adults. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals and families through moments of crisis, transition, and growth, always centering care that is human, respectful, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, heard, and understood—whether they are navigating acute stress, long-standing challenges, or simply seeking greater clarity and connection in their lives. My approach is grounded in empathy, practical support, and a deep belief in each person’s capacity for resilience and change. Firmly LGBTQ+ affirming and committed to anti-fascist, anti-oppressive care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Roanoke
Searching for therapists in Roanoke starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support for. Roanoke therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and background align with your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Roanoke, local appointment options may vary by specialty, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. When narrowing your options, consider whether you prefer in-person care, virtual sessions, evening availability, or a free phone consultation before booking. Reading therapist profiles can also show how each person describes their communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns similar to yours.
Therapy in Roanoke can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and list their availability. You can compare profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
