Alisa Sanford

I have a passion in supporting individuals, couples and families step into their true selves, connect deeply and hold space for all aspects of their whole self. A majority of my experience has been with adolescent and adult populations. I work well with individuals who have an interest and desire to understand how their experiences contribute to their way of being in the present. I have extensive training and experience in treating complex trauma and PTSD. I use a combination of evidence based modalities, including: EMDR, IFS, Somatic Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mind and Body Bridging, Schema Therapy etc. I provide individual therapy to people seeking to take a deep dive into their inner landscape. I have worked extensively with individuals working through trauma to address depression, anxiety, addiction, obsession, isolation, anger, relationship issues and more. My experience is primarily with adolescents and adults, both individually and as a couple. I believe to heal the pain we must walk through the pain in a more effective way: through common humanity, connection, compassion, curiosity and courage. Rumi said, “The cure for the pain is the pain. Good and bad are mixed,” and “What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle.” I will support you in finding the beauty in the opposing forces.
