Alyssa Sangrey , LCMHC

Stuck, overwhelmed, lost, frustrated, ashamed - these are painful states Alyssa Sangrey encounters regularly in her work with adults aged 18 and up. Many people seek her help after experiencing trauma, navigating a difficult relationship, wrestling with questions of faith, or coping with feelings of sadness, disconnection, worry, or simply feeling "out of it." Regardless of the source of distress, Alyssa aims to help clients move toward freedom, greater peace, and a clearer, more confident sense of self.

Alyssa approaches healing as something that happens within relationships - the relationship people have with themselves and with others. She engages as a co-journeyer rather than an authority, offering witness and calm presence while clients explore their concerns. Her work centers on creating a space where people can feel understood and begin to make meaningful changes.

Her primary tool in sessions is her authentic self, inviting clients to bring their own authenticity into the therapeutic process so growth can unfold naturally. Alyssa is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - LCMHC - and brings four years of clinical experience to her practice in Vermont. She is committed to supporting adults through stages of healing and personal development and is honored to join clients on that journey.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Growth and Support

Alyssa uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client's experience guides the work. This approach focuses on empathy and acceptance and can be helpful for people seeking greater self-understanding, confidence, and emotional safety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, offers concrete tools to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, known as DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Alyssa works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as the work unfolds so clients feel involved and supported in choosing what helps most.

Online therapy with Alyssa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which allows for flexibility in scheduling and formats. These options make it easier for adults to access consistent support from home or other convenient locations and to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for their healing and daily life.
