    Strategies for Healing Yourself and Relationships after Narcissistic Abuse

    Alyssa is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Alyssa has been serving in the mental health field since 2015 with a special concentration in addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-image, and overall holistic health and healing. She believes that although talk therapy is helpful and healing in its own right, true healing must go beyond 50-minute sessions. She believes that facilitating change begins with (1) a positive support system as well as (2) aligning the body, mind, and spirit, focusing on inner-child healing, the mind-body connection, healing the nervous system, and mindfulness-focused activities. Alyssa utilizes interventions that challenge the internalizing of circumstances, as well as the meaning one assigns to said circumstances in order to create empowering outcomes.
