About Alyssa

She also addresses concerns tied to adoption and foster care, blended family issues, body image, and other life transitions.

Her style is warm and client-centered. She focuses on strengths and works with clients to build tools that fit day-to-day life.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize small, doable changes rather than long lectures. Therapy draws on Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with other evidence-based techniques. That means sessions often look at what’s already working, set clear short-term goals, and practice new responses to stress and past hurt.

With 18 years of experience, Alyssa brings steady clinical background while keeping things straightforward. She aims to make problem-solving feel manageable instead of overwhelming. Conversations cover concrete skills for communication, emotion management, and rebuilding routine.

Alyssa is licensed in Missouri as LPC - licensed professional counselor. She offers multiple online session formats so people can choose what fits their life. Outside work she enjoys country music, pickleball, museums, Monet, and shoe shopping.

Evidence-based approaches for flexible online care

Alyssa often uses Solution-Focused Therapy, a short-term approach that homes in on strengths and practical steps. Sessions set clear, small goals and try actions that can change day-to-day life quickly. This approach is useful for stress, communication problems, and getting unstuck from unhelpful patterns.

She also draws on Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people understand how past hurts affect thoughts and reactions now. That work includes learning coping skills, processing difficult memories at a safe pace, and building healthier responses to triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alyssa works collaboratively to figure out which techniques fit each person’s needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts methods as progress or priorities change so therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity when life is unpredictable. Clients can choose what feels most practical and comfortable, and the therapist adapts tools and homework to the chosen format.
