Therapy can provide the opportunity to express and process emotions in order to understand the root of a problem as well as create the possibility for lasting positive change. Therapy can also be a safe place where not only can you learn about who you are, you can come to understand what you want for your life. Therapy can help you make sense out of the loss and past traumas as well as a place to give voice and understand better our story and the meaning we make from that story we want to tell to others about our life and who we are.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

With over 30 years' experience as a psychotherapist, I have developed a variety of tools to successfully deal with a wide range of psychological issues. Whether you suffer from depression, low self-esteem, anxiety, panic attacks, or other challenges, together we work to design a program that fits your needs, empowering you to create a life of greater peace and contentment.

Making the initial call is perhaps to worst part. But once your appointment is set, you will immediately experience relief. Deciding to seek help is in fact, a smart and courageous act. Therapy can be painful, but at least it doesn't require the use of sharp objects. In order to get well, you must face your fears, and accept the truth, no matter how ugly it may seem. And at last, you had the courage to connect with another human, crawl out from your hiding spot, and at last face the problem, be it embedded in past pain, or caused by a current crisis. Thank you for reaching out! We can now begin addressing and resolving whatever it was that's been holding you hostage for so long.

Appointments can be a lot. For those with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or life transitions, the departure from routine and the need to open up and be vulnerable can feel like a weight sitting on your chest. Our therapists utilize a variety of modalities to best help you in your therapeutic needs. We focus on meeting you where you're at, and work alongside of you throughout the process.

Are you having a tough time? Does life feel difficult right now and you're not sure what to do to make things better and to feel better?

Attending therapy with Alisa Kamis-Brinda, LCSW, LCADC can help you learn how some of the things you are doing to try to feel better might actually be getting in the way of living a meaningful life.

Psychotherapy can help you understand the hidden emotions which affect your everyday thoughts and behaviors. I can help you recognize the underlying fears and motives which drive you to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. Whether your pain is rooted in a difficult past, unhealthy relationships or lifelong mental health struggles, healing is possible. I will help you recognize unhealthy patterns that keep repeating themselves in your life, robbing you of closeness with others and inner peace. Then you will be able to grow toward thinking and feeling in new ways and relating to others differently. You don't have to stay stuck in the same painful place; there is hope.

I utilize both cognitive behavioral & psychodynamic techniques to not only alleviate present symptoms but to begin identifying & resolving the underlying cause. Much like physical pain, which can often be addressed with medication, it is critical to understand & attend to what is causing the pain. This process involves exploring both the present & the past to recognize how different patterns & coping strategies developed as well as how they may be altered, creating a more healthful life. Some individuals come briefly & focus on a specific concern & others longer term to more deeply explore themselves & their patterns. There's no set way to do this. It's about what you need & where you are.

Congratulations on taking the first daring and potentially wonderful steps into the world of healing through psychotherapy. My counseling practices are based on those techniques that are evidence based and proven to be effective from the clinical research literature. Specifically, I employ cognitive beahvioral therapy techniques (CBT) in helping my clients move past issues of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I strive to provide therapy in a very comfortable, safe, and judgement free environment.

Our positive and empowering therapeutic approach lets you build new tools for living, and create the life you want to live. Yes, you can change your world.

We help people effectively use all of our creative, emotional and social resources to develop new approaches to living their lives with others – which enables people to transform their lives and the world.

Psychotherapy can be a wonderful outlet to find peace and solutions to lifes issues. I help my clients through a practical and solution focused approach. My work is often seen as more coaching and less "therapy". I am experienced in helping individuals with a wide range of personal issues. However, my expertise in clinical work is with addictions.
