Hello my name is Alyssa Ryan I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
I foster a safe and accepting environment where we can unpack life’s challenges. Together we can explore healthy coping skills, identify goals for desired outcomes and develop self-empowerment. I believe everybody has the capacity to heal and live a meaningful life, I can help take these steps towards emotional wellness with you.
I have obtained my Masters in Social Work at Adelphi University with a focus in child and adolescent trauma and PTSD. My experience includes working with adults, adolescents, young adults, members of the LGBTQ+ community and individuals with developmental disabilities.
My approach is client centered using concepts from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). These techniques can assist with the mind body connection, identifying how thoughts influence behaviors and personal growth.
