More about Alyssa
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with 6 years of professional work experience. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults to assist in improving relationships, communication, and management of life stressors, trauma, and emotions. I highly value exceptional care and in doing so I incorporate compassion, trust, and hope in a therapeutic environment. I genuinely enjoy working with others to hear their life stories and assist those in incorporating self-compassion, clarity, meaning, and purpose in their daily lives. I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to increase the use of learned skills for a healthy version of you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and healthier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Alyssa is a really sweet compassionate considerate being who listens with her heart. She is responsive and quick with inquiry and options to investigate exercises or reflections that may be helpful.
Alyssa gives me the space to fill vulnerable and share what's really on my mind and what's been troubling me. I've thankful for being matched with her.
Alyssa is amazing! So easy to talk and be open with her. I could really tell she is listening and trying to help me thru what I’m dealing with. Very friendly as well!!
