More about Alisa

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenging experiences like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and grief.

I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with social isolation, communication difficulties, and internal emotional challenges such as guilt, shame, and self-acceptance. My approach is deeply rooted in understanding each person's unique journey, creating a supportive environment where healing and personal growth can flourish.

My therapeutic work focuses on empowering clients to develop stronger self-love, improve interpersonal communication, and build resilience when facing significant life transitions. I believe in a collaborative approach that honors each individual's strengths and inherent capacity for transformation.

Through evidence-based practices and genuine empathy, I aim to help clients develop meaningful strategies for emotional well-being, reconnection, and personal empowerment.

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.
