Alyssa Ingle, LPC

Alyssa Ingle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and depression. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, aging and geriatric matters, body image, codependency, and the fallout from separation or domestic violence. Alyssa frames the work around what a person needs right now and meets them with respect and warmth.

She uses Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with other evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and building small, practical tools that people can use between meetings. The work tends to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on forward progress rather than reliving the past.

Alyssa has 18 years of experience and is based in Missouri. She aims to help clients navigate life transitions and traumatic stress while supporting them to reconnect with purpose. Conversations are straightforward and supportive, aimed at finding usable steps toward change.

In the room, she helps people set reachable goals, practice communication skills, and develop coping strategies for anxiety and difficult emotions. She pays attention to how family roles, adoption or foster histories, and life stage issues affect daily life and decision making.

Outside of therapy she enjoys country music, pickleball, museums, Monet’s artwork, and shoe shopping. That personal side helps her relate to everyday life and the small routines that matter to clients.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying what is already working and building on it. In practice this means short-term goal setting and focusing on small, concrete steps that lead to noticeable change. It is useful for stress, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people understand how trauma affects thoughts and behaviors and teaches tools to reduce traumatic stress over time. Sessions commonly include skill building for managing anxiety, grounding techniques, and gradual processing of difficult memories when the client is ready.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining techniques or adjusting the pace to suit what feels manageable.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, cut commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will fit your routine and goals so sessions support day-to-day life.
