Meet Dr. Alyssa
Hi there, and welcome. You’ve arrived at a space where healing is personal, growth is supported, and wellness is always the goal.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adolescents and young adults to help them thrive—not just survive. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders—including anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder—and understand that these often co-occur with generalized anxiety, ADHD, and trauma.
I am trained in leading, evidence-based treatments, including:
- Family-Based Treatment (FBT)
- Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-E)
- Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Parent Management Training (PMT)
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Adult ADHD
I tailor each approach to meet my clients exactly where they are—balancing structure with compassion to support meaningful, sustainable progress.
For those interested in mind-body approaches to care, I offer a holistic support grounded in current psychological research. My approach honors the deep connection between emotional health, nervous system regulation, and overall wellbeing. I integrate mindfulness practices and yoga-informed treatment to help clients build awareness, foster resilience, and move beyond symptom relief—reconnecting with themselves in meaningful, lasting ways.
Why Choose Dr. Alyssa?
I combine evidence-based expertise with a nurturing presence and a concierge-style approach to ensure every client feels seen, supported, and empowered.
