About Alisha Risner

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, substance use concerns, life transitions, relationship difficulties, ADHD, and co-occurring mental health challenges. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or unsure how to move forward. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment focused on helping clients build insight, develop healthier coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you’ve been carrying everything on your own. You do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward healing, stability, and personal growth.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, substance use, co-occurring disorders, emotional regulation, self-esteem, and life transitions. I utilize evidence-based approaches including CBT, Motivational Interviewing, strengths-based therapy, and trauma-informed care to help clients gain insight.
