Alyssa Crawford, LCPC

Alyssa Crawford is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with six years of clinical experience. She practices in Iowa and works with adults on relationship and family concerns among other stresses that come up in life.

Alyssa focuses on practical, talk-based work. She helps people who struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, addiction concerns, and the fallout from trauma and grief. She also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and the general stress of life changes.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening. Sessions look at how early bonds and current relationships shape reactions. Conversations are designed to build clearer boundaries, improve communication, and reduce codependent patterns that leave someone putting others first at their expense.

Alyssa also uses cognitive behavioral tools and elements of dialectical behavior therapy. That means practical skills for managing intense emotions, tracking unhelpful thinking, and testing small behavior changes between sessions. Solution-focused steps are used to identify short-term goals and clear next steps.

She works in straightforward language and aims for concrete changes people can use between appointments. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can see if the approach fits their needs.
