About me
I’m Alyssa Kondor LCSW, as a therapist, I am passionate about supporting individuals through complex emotional challenges. I understand that seeking help can feel daunting, and I'm here to create a safe, supportive space for you to explore your experiences and build a path towards healing.
At Phoenix Rising Wellness I believe in transparency, honesty, and accountability. I offer a non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. My style is warm and calming, yet I also challenge you to break free from unhelpful patterns. It's about fostering "firm no-nonsense kindness" – holding you accountable while supporting your growth.
My 10+ years of experience allow me to provide a supportive and personalized approach to therapy, drawing on various techniques to meet your unique needs. I have in-depth experience working with personality disorders, substance abuse, and trauma. I also have experience working with dissociative disorders and can confidently integrate treatment approaches for all these areas. I'm trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a powerful therapy for resolving trauma symptoms. Additionally, I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches, including DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), attachment-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, and parts work. I tailor my approach to your unique needs, meeting you wherever you are on your journey.
