Alyssa Sangrey , LCMHC

Alyssa Sangrey is a licensed clinician who helps adults navigate moments of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. She guides people who are wrestling with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, or life transitions. Many clients also bring concerns around parenting, identity, trauma, or self-esteem. Her approach is direct and personable, aimed at helping people find more peace and confidence over time.

Alyssa centers the relationship she builds with each person. Sessions are collaborative - she listens, reflects, and follows what matters most to the client. She aims to be straightforward and present rather than directive, so people can make changes that feel authentic to them.

Her work draws on methods that help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. This includes strategies to manage anxiety and mood, plus skills for clearer communication and better emotional regulation. She blends practical tools with conversations about life story and meaning.

Alyssa holds a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential - LCMHC. She has four years of clinical experience and practices in Vermont. Sessions are offered in English and via online formats including video, phone, chat, and text messaging.

People often come to her when a relationship, grief, parenting challenge, or a major life change feels overwhelming. She supports exploration of attachment, family of origin concerns, trauma and postpartum challenges, among other issues. If someone wants help sorting through feelings and taking steps forward, she works alongside them in the process.

How her approaches work online

Alyssa uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the person's experience and pace. That means sessions focus on listening, understanding how the issue affects daily life, and supporting choices the client finds meaningful. This approach can help with feelings of emptiness, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. CBT offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for emotional regulation and handling intense feelings, and can be useful for anger, distress, and improving communication.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client talk about goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Alyssa aims to match tools to the person's needs and preferences rather than insisting on one fixed method.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video lets people read facial cues and tone, phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a work break, chat is useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into everyday life.
