“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

Holistic, Trauma-Focused Virtual Therapy for Neurodivergent Adults
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Engaging authentically with our stories and paying attention to what has been planted in our garden is how we can begin to strengthen the roots that help us grow.
Choosing what you plant in your garden is up to you; whether cultivating seeds of self-compassion, balance or well-being, you plant the seeds that we will nurture in our work together.
Hi, I’m Alyssa (she/HEr).
I believe that what is broken in relationship can also be healed in relationship. The power of human connection is remarkable. I have experienced my own deep healing through it. I view therapy as a collaborative process where, through the therapeutic relationship, we will partner together to help you better support your own needs and reach your goals.
I’ll be honest- therapy can be challenging. I commend you for taking this brave step. Paying compassionate attention to ourselves and being vulnerable with others involves risk. My hope for you is that the risk is worth it and you will experience a beautiful blossoming that leads to genuine, long-lasting healing. I’ll be here every step of the way, supporting you in your journey. I aim to help you dig into the strengths you already possess, listening and offering strategies to work through the weeds of pain. I hope to provide a space for you to experience acceptance, safety and non-judgment.
I prioritize my efforts toward creating an environment and counseling practice that is anti-racist, LGBTQIA+ affirming, weight inclusive, sex-positive, feminist, pro-immigrant, neurodiversity-affirming, and disability justice-oriented.
It’s my honor to get to do this work with you. I look forward to hearing your story.
