About Elyse
Elyse Alleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, and life stressors. She speaks plainly and listens first, offering steady support while clients sort through hard decisions and painful emotions. She brings 16 years of experience in the helping field.
That background includes work with people managing mood disorders, substance concerns, grief, relationship strains, parenting stress, career transitions, and family members of people with severe mental illness.
Background and approach
Her approach centers on the person in front of her rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Her style is client-centered and holistic. Clients lead the conversation while she attends to emotional, social, physical, and spiritual factors that affect daily life.
Expect a respectful, nonjudgmental presence that mixes listening with practical feedback and validation. Therapy may use tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches. Sessions focus on what is useful now - coping skills, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and making small changes that add up over time.
She works with people dealing with grief, anger, parenting strain, family conflict, bipolar mood concerns, and career stress. Elyse encourages clear goals and collaborative planning so clients leave sessions with concrete next steps and a sense of momentum.
Practical approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist creates a respectful, nonjudgmental space and helps clients clarify goals and make choices that feel right for them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses straightforward exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and daily life. That may mean combining mindfulness, CBT exercises, and motivational interviewing to keep progress practical and manageable.
Online sessions through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for different days and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while trying different ways to make progress.
