About Alyssa
Alyssa Ingle is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strains, family concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. She uses a practical, client-centered style and focuses on building strengths and day-to-day tools. Her approach aims to help people take clear steps forward when life feels overwhelming.
Alyssa works in a collaborative way. She and the person she is seeing set goals together and pick strategies that fit their life.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, achievable changes - practicing new ways to respond, strengthening coping skills, and noticing what already helps. Her background includes 18 years of clinical experience as an LPC in Missouri. Over that time she has helped people facing trauma, divorce and separation, domestic violence, adoption and foster care challenges, blended family issues, and aging and geriatric concerns.
She also supports those dealing with body image, codependency, communication problems, and control issues. Alyssa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, alongside other proven approaches. That mix lets her tailor sessions to each person’s needs and pace.
She aims to make therapy feel useful and understandable rather than overwhelming. Outside of work she enjoys country music, pickleball, museums, Monet’s paintings, and shoe shopping. That personal side shows up in sessions as an easygoing, down-to-earth presence.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Alyssa commonly uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on identifying what already works and building on small, realistic steps toward a chosen goal. This approach is useful for reducing stress and improving day-to-day coping by focusing on practical change.She also uses Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a method that helps people process distressing experiences and build coping skills to reduce trauma-related reactions. TF-CBT is often used when trauma or difficult past events affect current mood and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person’s situation. They adjust techniques over time so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video visits allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and messaging helps with short updates or ongoing support. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules while keeping progress moving forward.
