I am a pluralistic (integrative), client-centered, & humanistic therapist. I collaborate with clients, prioritize how they want to use the time & space in therapy, and help them to identify what kinds of support feel safe, comfortable & effective for them. I do not have an "ideal client". I love getting to connect with all kinds of people, exploring wide-ranging issues they want to focus on. When I work with folks with whom I share common identities/ lived experiences, that can be special & meaningful, but I've also had awesome experiences & successful outcomes when supporting clients who might seem quite "different" from me.

I am a Licensed Social Worker dedicated to supporting individuals in overcoming life's challenges. I obtained my MSW from the University of Pennsylvania and have since focused my practice on assisting clients with Learning Disabilities, Anxiety Disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Social Skills Groups, Difficult & Oppositional Adolescents, and Therapeutic Wilderness Program Transitions. ​ My approach to therapy is client-centered and collaborative, emphasizing empathy and understanding. I believe in the importance of meeting clients where they are and working together to achieve their goals.

I am very passionate about working with children and adolescents who are questioning/embracing their gender and/or sexuality. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, ASD, open/nonmonogamous relationships, suicidality, or many other issues, I would love to work with you. I want children and adolescents to feel autonomous and in control of their own therapy. I believe that the client is the expert on themselves and my job is to learn from them, while contributing with my own skillset.

I am an art & play therapist & child-adolescent specialist who helps children and parents develop powerful coping skills to overcome challenges & succeed at home, school, & in relationships.

I know how children think & my waiting rooms, offices, & every move I make is designed to help children & teens enjoy therapy. I treat a range of emotional-behavioral challenges & have a sub-specialty in social skills groups for neurodiverse children. Located in Haverford, Paoli, Blue Bell, & Center City.

Are you struggling with day to day activities? I am here to help.

Each client is a unique individual needing their own structured support, coping skills and therapy. I will listen and collaborate a treatment plan most effective for you, depending on the context of your life, as we hurdle one obstacle at a time. It is my passion to share this journey with you.

I offer an opportunity to address multiple issues with an emphasis on the effects of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss. Trauma and emotional pain can lead to a sense of being stuck. This can feel like being stuck in responses to situations and events and people that maintain our pain and present obstacles to our growth and flourishing. A warm and trusting therapeutic relationship can create an opportunity to get unstuck. This can manifest as increased confidence and a feeling that you are more present in your life. It can foster self awareness and improvement in your relationship with yourself and others.

We are a friendly and professional mental health practice that has been providing outstanding and affordable therapy for adults, couples, families, teens, and children since 1985.

I have extensive experience working with individuals and couples who are seeking relief from pain, suffering and confusion. I work best with folks hoping to be part of process leading to a quick resolution. Once initial concerns are addressed, I find working with someone interested in additional explorations into the root of their issues, very rewarding.

My focus is helping you to discover your own unique pathway through the hardships and challenges that you are currently facing. This path is almost impossible to find on your own when you feel lost, confused, overwhelmed, and in pain. At such times one naturally feels broken, defective, and defeated by troubles that you have tried your best to understand and overcome. In every struggle however there lies a hidden possibility for growth and development that can lead to a renewed sense of meaning and well being. My work is to listen carefully to you, to come to understand your unique life, and how what you are struggling with actually makes perfect sense. By understanding your life and your struggle we can find what is needed to navigate through to a renewed sense of life and meaning.

I can provide that safe place for someone battling anxiety, depression, or stress. If you are feeling overwhelmed with balancing home and work life, I can be your confidant. We can work collaboratively and begin the journey to wellness. People want peace of mind during this time of chaos and I can provide that calm presence that someone is looking for.

Hey, I am Alyssa. Are you looking for someone to help guide you through some life and behavioral changes that have been a struggle? Do you notice difficulty managing moods, communicating effectively with others, and/or giving yourself compassion? I am excited and ready to travel that journey with you and offer a nonjudgemental, safe environment, to build a real therapeutic relationship.

Whether you are coming to therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, a life change, or just a general sense of unease, facing these issues can be scary.

My approach is warm, relational, and integrative. I strive to offer a space where you can feel safe enough to look inward – to gently and compassionately welcome all parts of yourself with less judgment and shame.

Are you looking for someone with whom you can have an open, honest, direct, and thoughtful conversation about whatever matters most to you? Someone who will listen carefully and attentively to you? Someone who will engage you in warm, candid, and supportive dialogue in ways that encourage you and help you to grow as a person? Someone who will help you to repair whatever has been ruptured in your life? If so, we would likely work well together! At the most basic level, therapy is an opportunity to make an intentional connection with each other in order to bring about greater awareness and understanding, and, ultimately, healing.
