About Alysse
In sessions she focuses on how different parts of life connect to a problem. She uses attachment-based and emotion-focused ideas to notice patterns in relationships and close bonds. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills when strong emotions or overwhelm get in the way of daily life.
Alysse sees clients as the experts in their own lives. She listens first, then offers tools people can try between sessions. Those tools are concrete - like new ways to frame a worry, practice a boundary, or manage intense feelings day to day.
Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Colorado State University and a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University. Over seven years she has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings. That experience includes supporting people with depression, life transitions, self-esteem, and trauma.
Now based in Colorado, she returned after several years in Texas and brings that blend of settings to her work. People who want a respectful, practical therapist who pays close attention to relationships may find her approach helpful.
