About Alissa
Alissa Schneider is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, attention and focus challenges, and life transitions. Her work also covers parenting concerns, career changes, sleeping problems, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.
Alissa favors a practical, solution-focused style. She aims to help people make changes that fit day-to-day life. Sessions are often short-term and goal-directed when that matches a person's needs.
Background and approach
Her approach mixes evidence-informed methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She uses those tools to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts, build actionable plans, and try new behaviors between sessions. Alissa also integrates faith when clients want that element in counseling.
She listens for each person's priorities and shapes sessions around those values and goals rather than applying a single script. People who choose her often want clear next steps and practical strategies for coping with anxiety, improving sleep, handling career decisions, or navigating parenting challenges.
She works with people at different points in life and aims to help them find manageable ways forward.
How ACT, CBT, and Solution-Focused Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and pick actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns that increase distress and trying different behaviors to change results. It is practical for sleep problems, low mood, and managing attention and focus. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, achievable steps toward clear goals and is often used for parenting concerns, career changes, and short-term problems.Finding the right approach is a joint process. Alissa will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will choose or blend methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls let therapists observe nonverbal cues and run skill-building exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when movement or camera time is difficult. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing reminders between sessions. These options let people keep momentum and practice new habits without rearranging their whole day.
