Alyssa Hermanson, LCSW

I specialize in helping women navigating motherhood, military life, anxiety, and big life transitions find space to reconnect with themselves – and feel more grounded in who they’re becoming.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a mom of two, and a military spouse. For over five years, I’ve supported women and families through seasons of change, and I’ve walked through many of the same challenges my clients face.

Motherhood changed me.

Military life stretched me.

These experiences deepened my passion for supporting women who are juggling so much – emotionally, mentally, and logistically – while still trying to show up for everyone else.

What We Can Work On Together

Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling stretched thin, unsure of what’s next, or like they’ve lost pieces of themselves in the chaos of life.

In our work together, we might unpack challenges like:

Feeling stuck or uncertain about what’s next

Adjusting to new motherhood and identity shifts

Coping with anxiety, burnout, or emotional overload

Rebuilding identity and confidence after big changes

Navigating military transitions and relationship strain

Let’s Take the Next Step – Together!

You’ve spent so much time showing up for everyone else. Therapy can be a place where you feel supported, too.

How I Help

In sessions, I offer a calm, down-to-earth space to talk through what’s going on and explore what you need most. We’ll work together to build insight and real-life tools you can actually use.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Helps shift unhelpful thought patterns so you can respond with more clarity, compassion, and choice.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Focuses on practical, achievable steps to help you move toward your goals – even when life feels overwhelming.

Motivational Interviewing

Supports your motivation and confidence when you’re feeling stuck or unsure about change.

Narrative Therapy

Helps you explore your story, redefine what it means to you, and connect more deeply with your strengths and identity.

I’m a trauma-informed therapist with additional training in Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and I hold a Military Counseling certification.

I also have specialized training in Perinatal Mental Health.
