Welcome! I am Alissa Wible, LISW-S, a psychotherapist and clinical social worker. I hold a BA from Oberlin College in Psychology (2006) and an MSSA from Case Western Reserve University in Social Work (2011). I do my best work with individual adults struggling with anxiety, trauma, and sensitivity. I have secondary interests in working with depression, life transitions, and relationship issues. I welcome people of diverse backgrounds and cultures to my practice.
I am primarily a talk therapist, and highly value developing individualized relationships with my clients. The main approaches I use are CBT and DBT. I also have extensive training in yoga and breathwork, and other practices that help calm the nervous system; hence I often focus on mindfulness and lifestyle change.
You deserve support and structure, as you work towards improving your mental health. I consider myself a guide, who assists people navigating challenging times. My ultimate goal is to support someone in recovering and finding meaning after difficulties, and to help them build a new version of life that is aligned with their strengths and values.
Right now, it’s fall 2024 and I am working remotely and only accepting new telehealth clients. This season, I am launching my new Substack blog Adjacent- Atypical Adventures in Living Well. I look forward to rebuilding an in-person practice in the distant future, once my writing career has been launched. Thank you!
