Hi, I’m Alana! If you feel like you just can't seem to find the right therapist for you, give me a call. I will happily provide a free consultation over the phone or virtually, even if I am not the person for you I can guide you in the direction you would like to go! Finding the right therapist for you is half the battle and it is a vulnerable and sometimes challenging process. I respect the fact that picking up the phone or even going on this website is nerve wracking and I know that it took a lot to even get you here. I am an unconventional therapist. I guide treatment with empathy first. I utilize evidence-based techniques unique to your needs.
My various specialties are providing therapeutic guidance and support from a peer-based & evidence-based lens to those facing chronic pain conditions, chronic illnesses, those who deal with perfectionism, ethnic minorities, first-generation Americans, couples looking to improve their relationship, treating survivors of narcissistic abuse, and complex-PTSD.
I’m available Monday through Friday, with evening hour flexibility either in person or through the comfort of a telehealth in your jammies.

I use a unique combination of Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Pain-Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) to help individuals struggling with chronic pain or autoimmune issues
-
I treat the psychological injuries that incur as a result of narcissistic abuse but implementing Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
-
I specialize in supporting therapists, healthcare providers, and other helping professionals who often carry the emotional weight of caring for others while navigating their own stress, burnout, or life transitions
-
I help couples understand the deeper emotional patterns that often drive conflict. By strengthening communication, rebuilding trust, and developing healthier boundaries, couples can move out of reactive cycles and toward a more secure and collaborative partnership.
-
I provide specialized support for families and loved ones navigating the emotional, practical, and legal complexities of the Marchman Act and ex parte petition processes. These options can often feel overwhelming or confusing during an already stressful time. I help families understand their choices, prepare for the process, and navigate the emotional impact while advocating for the safety and well-being of their loved one.
-
As a first-generation American, I combine personal insight and clinical expertise to support individuals navigating cultural identity, family expectations, and intergenerational dynamics. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds seeking understanding, growth, and balance between cultural values and personal goals.
