Healing isn't linear — and you don't have to figure it out alone.

Life can get heavy. Whether you're carrying the weight of past trauma, navigating the emotional complexity of pregnancy or postpartum, or simply trying to get through each day while managing anxiety or depression, you deserve a space that feels safe enough to be honest in.

I'm Alyssa, a licensed clinical social worker based in Raleigh, NC. I work with individuals ages 12 and up, specializing in trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, and perinatal mood disorders. My approach is trauma-informed and draws from evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, EMDR and motivational interviewing — but more than any technique, I believe the relationship we build together is at the heart of meaningful change.

I am deeply committed to affirming care for members of the LGBTQIA+ community and those from marginalized backgrounds. My space is one where your full identity is not only welcomed, but celebrated.

You may come in feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start. That's okay. We'll go at your pace, with compassion and without judgment.
