About My Clients
Are you someone who has felt like they are just "too much"? Have you ever felt anxious or depressed, & you can't really figure out why? Do you experience these feelings even in moments where everything is technically "okay"? I know exactly what you're feeling: racing heart, shortness of breath, brain on fire. These responses most likely saved your life at one point. We can honor that while changing the body pattern to respond to the present. This is what Somatic Trauma Therapy is all about.
My Background and Approach
I’m Alyssa (she/her). I’m a queer-identified therapist, caffeine enthusiast, dedicated dog mom, and unapologetic reality TV viewer. I have a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I view humans through the lens of attachment. Everything about us: what we do, our behaviors, and our choices, makes sense when we look at the environments we have been exposed to. We are shaped by our experiences. I use parts work, emotion-focused, coherence therapy, polyvagal theory, and somatic experiencing. Ultimately, YOU MAKE SENSE. We will always work together to see what approach might be the best for you individually and go from there! Flexibility and curiosity are always prioritized.
