Alyssa has clinical experience in both individual and group therapy working with trauma survivors during her time at Lotus Counseling and Psychological Services.

Alyssa approaches therapy through a humanistic and goal-oriented perspective. She believes building a strong therapeutic relationship with a client is one of the most powerful tools in counseling. Her top priority is to create a collaborative, warm, friendly, and empathetic environment for her client and to ultimately become a part of their support system.

Alyssa views therapy through an Adlerian lens. Adlerian therapy allows her to focus on the development of an individual's personality, while also understanding and accepting the interconnectedness of all individuals. She incorporates encouragement to help clients learn how to recognize their strengths and gain confidence. Additional interventions that may be utilized include identifying mistaken beliefs from a client's past experiences. Alyssa has treated various clients with trauma, anxiety, depression, sexual assault, relationship conflicts, grief, life transitions, and more.
