More about Alissa

- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health clinician. I provide supportive counseling to help navigate and develop a healthier version of yourself. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents with substance use disorders, family conflicts, relationship issues and anxiety. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I work from the perspective that the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of counseling. In session you can expect a genuine, warm and empathetic clinician that uses insightful questioning to help guide you to become an active participant of your own life. I also use CBT approaches and can teach several coping skills to use alternatively.
I completed my undergraduate and graduate schoolwork at Florida International University and have lived in Miami, FL all of my life, I am fully bilingual in (Spanish/English). In my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, and spending time with my 4-year-old daughter.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
