Alyssa Najera, LCSW, is a dedicated clinical social worker and therapist specializing in counseling for children, teens, and professionals. She works passionately with adults navigating the complexities and stressors associated with high-pressure roles in human services, business ownership, and various medical or legal professions. Alyssa understands that these careers often lead individuals into challenging and sometimes traumatic situations, which can resurface personal issues from the past. Her clients frequently experience feelings of emotional exhaustion, anxiety, depression, and a sense of disconnection, often thinking no one truly understands their struggles. Alyssa is committed to helping them reconnect with themselves, resolve past traumas that resurface at inconvenient times, and establish effective work/life boundaries. In addition to her work with adults, she also focuses on reducing anxiety and healing trauma in children and teens, particularly those affected by significant life changes or distressing experiences. Alyssa is also a host on the Therapists Uncut Podcast, a self-help show for adults where she delves into various topics, including anxiety, alcoholism, PTSD, and relationships. Her approach is rooted in compassion, aiming to provide support and guidance for those looking to reclaim their emotional well-being.
