About Alyssa
Alyssa Blaeser, LCSW, helps parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what is most urgent for each person. Her approach is practical and focused on small, useful changes that fit day-to-day life.
She draws on five years as a licensed clinical social worker and on prior experience in child welfare and community settings. Sessions center on what the client wants to change, with tools and conversation tailored to those goals.
Background and approach
She balances problem-solving with attention to feelings and past patterns. Alyssa combines several evidence-based techniques to meet different needs. She uses cognitive methods to address anxious thinking and behavioral strategies for patterns that keep problems going.
She also brings in skills for managing emotions and improving communication where needed. Parents often get concrete coaching on routines, limits, and handling conflicts without long lectures. For trauma-related concerns she works carefully to pace conversations and build coping skills first.
Many people leave sessions with an action they can try before the next appointment. Outside the therapy room Alyssa enjoys hiking in National Parks and spending time with her family. She aims to make therapy feel approachable and useful from the first session.

How Alyssa’s Approaches Work Online
Alyssa uses evidence-based techniques that translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts to reduce anxiety and improve decision making. These methods are useful for worries, stress, and everyday parenting decisions.She also uses skills-based strategies for emotion regulation and behavior change. These techniques teach concrete steps to manage strong feelings and adjust routines or responses. They can help with caregiver stress, communication challenges, and patterns that keep problems going.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will ask about the client's goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to choose which methods to use and when to try something new.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversations and skill teaching when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, skill practice, or quick scheduling. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into busy family lives.
