About Alisyn
Alisyn Cundiff is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin who focuses on practical support for parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life transitions. She writes and talks plainly in sessions to help people find clearer steps forward. Her manner is warm and respectful, and she works at a pace that fits each person.
Alisyn uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behavior.
Background and approach
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. Motivational interviewing helps when people are unsure about change or coping with habits like drug and alcohol use. She brings three years of professional experience to each session and tailors plans to what a person needs right now.
Sessions tend to be interactive, with practical exercises and conversation rather than long lectures. Alisyn pays attention to the relationship in therapy and focuses on building trust as a step toward goals. Many people come for help with parenting stress, communication problems, impulsivity, or co-occurring issues like anxiety and substance use.
She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment wounds, blended family issues, and caregiver stress. Alisyn offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. She speaks English and works with adults in Wisconsin.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session based on availability.

Approaches that fit parenting and everyday stress
Alisyn uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and parenting habits that feel stuck.She also works from an attachment-based perspective, looking at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting. This can help with trust, communication problems, and patterns that show up in caregiving and relationships.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust the plan if something isn’t working. Sessions are meant to be a team effort toward practical change.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let you see facial cues and use screen-shared worksheets during sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging provide quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or support between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting schedules, work, and caregiving duties while still working toward steady progress.
