About Alyse

Alyse Walker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem concerns. Her manner is collaborative and non-judgmental, and she aims to help clients find manageable steps forward.

She often helps people who are processing grief, shame, or past abuse, and those trying to rebuild a sense of self-worth. She also supports people facing relationship and communication challenges, career crossroads, and questions about life purpose.

Background and approach

Parenting and family concerns are part of her practice, approached from the perspective of individual needs and coping strategies. Alyse uses approaches grounded in research but explained in everyday terms. She draws on client-centered methods to follow each person's lead.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thought and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance. She brings experience supporting people through chronic illness, cancer, body image struggles, and caregiver stress. That work often includes pacing goals, practical coping tools, and attention to emotional fatigue.

She also addresses issues such as addiction, ADHD, and complicated grief with clear, stepwise plans. Alyse aims to create a respectful space where clients can speak honestly without pressure. She emphasizes collaboration and cultural responsiveness, helping each person set realistic goals and choose strategies that fit their life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Alyse commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that work well online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead, helping people feel heard while they name goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and improve mood and functioning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their needs, preferences, and goals and then suggest methods to try. Sessions can shift over time as new issues arise or progress is made, and she works with clients to adjust plans together.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and support steady progress through brief check-ins or regular hour sessions. It can also allow people to use tools practiced in session immediately in their daily routines, which helps carry learning into real situations.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
