As a therapist deeply committed to both my personal and professional growth, I believe that the process of healing is ongoing. I continue to engage in my own therapeutic work, which allows me to offer an authentic and empathetic presence as I support clients through their healing journeys. I understand that growth often requires both deep self-reflection and a safe, supportive relationship, and I bring this awareness into my work with clients.

I am an Psychotherapist with many years of experience . I work with individuals seeking to reframe ,and reclaim their past , and create a hopeful path to the lives they want.

In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.

We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel aligned with who you are. Many of my clients are insightful, sensitive, and capable, yet struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment wounds, ADHD, or relationship challenges. You may be used to caring for others, masking your needs, or pushing through instead of feeling supported. You’re looking for therapy that feels safe, real, and validating — not judgmental or distant — and you want to better understand yourself, your emotions, and your relationships.

I offer relational, trauma-informed therapy grounded in attachment-based and emotionally focused approaches. I work collaboratively to help clients understand emotional and relational patterns, regulate their nervous systems, and build self-trust and healthier connections. My practice is affirming of neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ identities.

Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. I offer a supportive, honest, and affirming space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself. Whether you’re navigating trauma, relationships, identity, or emotional overwhelm, you deserve therapy that feels human, safe, and respectful of who you are.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor offering virtual therapy in Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia. I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision and specialize in working with individuals navigating the impact of childhood maltreatment and trauma, including sexual abuse. I also support women living with autoimmune diseases who are managing the emotional and psychological toll of chronic illness.

I’m Alyiah, Licensed Professional Counselor, and I provide therapy that is warm, direct, and actually useful in real life.

I help clients who feel stuck in patterns—overthinking, people-pleasing, emotional burnout, or relationship cycles—and want clarity on how to move differently. My background in psychology and criminology helps me quickly connect patterns so we’re not just talking, we’re understanding and shifting what’s keeping you stuck.

If spirituality is important to you, we can also integrate that into your work in a way that feels aligned and supportive.
