Hi, I’m Alyssa! I help women heal their anxiety & panic attacks, overcome negative self-talk & increase their confidence, so they can live happier & more fulfilled lives. Does any of this sound like you? You're having anxiety or panic attacks & don't know why. No matter how hard you try, you can't stop your racing or negative thoughts. Things you used to love (traveling, meeting new people) are now scary. You want to be more assertive & create boundaries but don't know how. You're always worrying, overthinking & doubting yourself. You're exhausted but can't sleep. You compare yourself to others & shame spiral on social media. If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place. I'm here to help you heal your anxiety & panic attacks, stop overthinking & doubting yourself, show up more authentically, become more assertive & state your needs, create boundaries & stop people-pleasing, be more self-compassionate, defeat negative self-talk, become more present & confident. It's disheartening to feel like you're not living the life you're meant to & knowing how to get started is overwhelming. I'll help you take small, sustainable steps to get you to where you want to be, while still accepting & celebrating how far you've come. Change is scary, but I'll meet you where you are & together we can move you towards the life you want.

Pittsford, NY

Jung said “We don’t get wounded alone and we don’t heal alone.” Meaning everything that is hurt within a relationship must be healed within one. As a therapist, I believe in deep relational work, whether that is in an individual setting or with a parent-child dyad/triad. I am not about “quick fixes” and believe that the best results come with time and curiosity. I work with both adults as well as caretakers of children alongside their child. I worked a significant portion of my career in a state setting, which has informed my approach as being anti-behavioral, conscious of the impact of systems, and recognizing the importance of our upbringing in our future wellness.
