Alissa Dayton, LMFT

Alissa is influenced by attachment theory, systems theory, and trauma research. She strongly believes that clients are the experts on their own lives and approaches therapy collaboratively, highlighting client strengths and resiliency. Alissa uses EMDR, internal family systems, emotion-focused, narrative, DBT and solution-focused therapy models and interventions with adults. With children, Alissa uses a combination of play, art, movement, and talk and encourages families to be a part of treatment whenever possible. Alissa is a lifelong Oregon native. She enjoys spending time with her partner and kids, hiking, gardening, making art and crafts, singing and roller-blading.
