Hi, I’m Alyssa.
Sometimes, existing feels like an overwhelmingly difficult task.
Whether you have a history of childhood trauma or are grieving the loss of a loved one, you might find yourself feeling depressed, anxious, or confused about your emotions. It’s natural to seek someone who can listen and help you, whether that means offering a new perspective or simply validating your current feelings. In therapy, a safe space is crucial, and I strive to provide that for every client. You deserve to be heard and understood without the fear of judgment, and you should be able to be yourself in this space, regardless of societal expectations. Whether you are new to therapy or have tried it before, I will work with you every step of the way to determine how I can best support you during our time together.
Alyssa Aguirre, Intern
I am currently an intern working towards my master’s degree in social work. I am dedicated to being a safe space for others and advocating fiercely for quality mental healthcare. It has long been my dream to become a trauma-informed therapist and support others in the best way I know how. I primarily work with older teens and adults, with a particular focus on college students. As someone who is both neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+, I am especially passionate about helping those who don’t fit societal norms. I am also open to working with individuals in alternative relationship structures, such as nonmonogamy and polyamory, which are often stigmatized.
In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, watching anime, playing video games, and participating in Dungeons & Dragons. I also love cats and all things spooky.
