About Alyssa Goodman, LMSW/LGSW, PMH-C
I believe that becoming a parent can be both an exciting new journey and an incredibly challenging experience at the same time. I am passionate about working with individuals while they are planning to expand their family, going through pregnancy/planning for a baby’s arrival, and through the first few years of parenthood. I work alongside my clients to co-create a therapeutic space for them to feel seen and supported in all aspects of their lives.
I draw from my experience coaching parents and leading new parent groups, as well as my social work background, to offer a combination of supports. By spending time deeply listening to each parent’s individual story, I learn more about how I can support them holistically. Balancing relationships with new dynamics and clarifying who a parent wants to be in the next phase of their journey takes time.
I strive to make the most of my time with each client by being intentional about how I adapt my style to their current needs while keeping a focus on their larger goals. I value a collaborative, strengths-based approach and often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Solution Focused Therapy into my practice.
