She also provides support for many additional mental health concerns beyond her primary areas of focus.

Outside of her professional role, Alyssa enjoys reading, gardening, and spending time with her husband, son, and daughter. She values the balance that family life and time outdoors bring, and these experiences help inform her compassionate, patient-centered approach to care.
