Master’s level Marriage & Family Therapy Intern
As a marriage and family therapy intern, Alissa specializes in working with couples, families, and other relational pairs (siblings, friends, etc.). Her goal is to provide a warm, understanding, and encouraging space for couples, families and individuals (age 13+) to explore relationship challenges, difficult emotions, transitions, and life events. She takes a systemic and collaborative approach to therapy and incorporates authenticity, humor and hope. Alissa aims to hold space for the whole context of clients and to help them build on their strengths and resources to find clarity and reach their goals.
Alissa looks forward to working with clients experiencing relationship and communication issues, life transitions, burnout, anxiety, grief and loss, adult ADHD, and/or the daily challenges of life. She has particular passion around providing support and recognition to those experiencing fertility treatment, infertility, and/or childlessness.
Alissa is a master’s level intern under the supervision of Jessica Van Berkum. She brings with her a long background in fast-paced corporate roles, yoga teaching and Thai Yoga Bodywork certifications, and an associated understanding of the importance of self-care and making intentional space for one’s most important relationships. She is honored to join you as you move towards the life you desire.
Alissa has immediate availability. She is available via telehealth and at our White Bear Lake and Highland locations.
