Goal-oriented & GROUNDING COUNSELING that works | across ma, ct, ri

A Grounding Space for High-Profile, High-Performing Adults, Parents, and Professionals in Burnout

Therapy for Burnout in High-Profile, High-Performing Career Professionals

Leading at the highest levels comes with immense pressure, long hours, and constant responsibility. For executives and C-suite professionals, this can lead to burnout, overwhelm, and a disconnection from both your work and yourself. Career therapy offers a space to step back, reflect, and regain clarity (without judgment or performance expectations).

I work with leaders to explore the patterns, beliefs, and pressures that contribute to burnout, helping you reclaim focus, energy, and satisfaction in your professional life. This includes strategies for managing stress, navigating high-stakes decisions, and creating a career path that aligns with your strengths and values. For neurodivergent leaders, I offer affirming support to understand your unique wiring and leverage it for peak performance rather than forcing conformity to traditional corporate expectations.

Through focused sessions, whether ongoing therapy, EMDR intensives, or executive-focused coaching, we create momentum for meaningful change. The goal is not just to survive your role, but to thrive in it, with greater resilience, clarity, and alignment in both your career and personal life.

EMDR Intensives in Newington CT: Focused Accelerated Healing  

For adults seeking faster, focused progress, I offer EMDR intensives. These are customized, multi-hour sessions designed to accelerate trauma processing in a safe, structured way. Intensives are particularly beneficial for busy professionals and parents who need impactful results in a limited timeframe.

Why choose an EMDR Intensive?

Deep momentum, not slow drift: Intensives give us time to go deep, finish what’s opened, and hold you through meaningful shifts.

Built for your schedule: Get more therapeutic clarity in fewer sessions.

Structure that supports your brain’s unique wiring: Thoughtfully paced, trauma-informed, and tailored for you.

Intensives may be a good fit if you feel stalled by weekly therapy’s rhythm. Need a reset or breakthrough sooner rather than later. Are navigating a traumatic life transitiona  or sensory overwhelm that is disrupting your ability to function every day. And you want focused, accelerated change, fast.

LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF

Hi! I’m Alyssa, licensed therapist, business owner, mom of littles, AuDHD human

I know what it’s like to juggle career, parenting, relationships, and your own emotions with a neurodivergent brain — because I’ve lived it. As both a therapist and a mom with AuDHD, I’ve learned how to move beyond survival mode, calm the overwhelm, and build self-trust. Now I help my clients do the same — with evidence-based tools, lived experience, and a healthy dose of humor.

"Alyssa brings deep insight and genuine warmth to her work with neurodiverse clients and parents experiencing burnout.

She creates a compassionate space where clients feel supported, understood, and empowered to find balance and connection.” 

THERAPIST COLLEAGUE

“Alyssa helped me to finally get an ADHD diagnosis."

Now my job has granted me work accommodations that I’ve desperately needed. Having this diagnosis has meant a lot to me. It’s life-affirming.”

FORMER EVALUATION CLIENT, 38, GENDER FLUID 

“I had a lot of therapists before Alyssa, but never I could never talk to them so openly and candidly about my ADHD.

Alyssa makes me feel deeply seen and heard. More and more, I’m learning to accept my brain, flaws and all, and work with it. I am learning to stop forcing habits that don’t work for me, and to give myself grace.”

CURRENT CLIENT, 41, FEMALE, MOM OF NEURODIVERGENT CHILDREN

“I leave my sessions with Alyssa feeling excited and optimistic.

I have learned from our work that I really can find better ways to live my life that actually work for the way my brain works. It’s been life-changing!”

FORMER CLIENT, 38, MALE IN C-SUITE EXECUTIVE ROLE

If you’re parenting a child with a PDA profile, you’ve probably encountered the term Pathological Demand Avoidance. While that is the phrase most commonly used in clinical and research spaces, many parents and neurodivergent advocates (i.e. me) feel that the word...
