Alyse Yancy

My communication style

I create a calm, welcoming space where you can feel safe sharing whatever is on your mind. My approach is open, honest, and nonjudgmental. You can expect me to listen closely—not only to what you say, but to the emotions and experiences beneath your words.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I care deeply about creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and supported. My background includes working with children and families in after-school programs, foster care, treatment services, and as a unit social worker in a children’s hospital. These experiences shape my compassionate approach.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting as a collaborative and flexible process. We start by creating a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore what feels overwhelming and what matters most to you. Together, we identify realistic goals and practical steps that support clarity, coping, and meaningful progress at your pace.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know you and what brought you to therapy. We’ll talk about what’s been going on in your life, how you’ve been feeling, and what you hope to gain from therapy. You’re welcome to share at your own pace as we begin identifying goals together.
