About Alana
With ten years of experience, she has worked across many settings and with people who have had contact with social services and educational supports. That background informs how she helps clients manage trauma, parenting challenges, adoption or foster care concerns, and caregiver stress. She brings together tools from several approaches to meet the needs she sees.
Sessions focus on what matters most to the client. Alana emphasizes strengths and builds on them, while also teaching coping skills for anger, grief, addictions, and life transitions. She adapts methods as progress is made so the work stays relevant and practical.
Alana combines client-centered care with evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and trauma-focused methods. She also uses attachment-oriented ideas and emotion-focused work to help people repair relationships and regulate emotions. EMDR is among the approaches she includes when appropriate.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that adjusts over time. She helps set clear goals and reviews progress, aiming for manageable changes that fit everyday life. To begin, clients use the site’s Start Therapy process to match and schedule sessions.
