Alyssa Friedman-Yan, LCSW
I am a licensed therapist in the state of Connecticut and specialize in the topics of anxiety, depression, grief, relationship termination, lack of focus, identity confusion, and issues pertaining to sexuality. In couples work I focus on the importance of communication, trust, and sexual awareness. My approach to psychotherapy has emphasis on the needs of each individual client.
My framework is relational, and supportive, with emphasis in gestalt/existential/here and now therapy, as well as cognitive behavioral techniques. Work is done to help clients to learn new coping strategies when client's feel stuck and ill equipped.
My specialty is in personality disorders, couples counseling, and in individual work with identity and or grief. I use coping tools and supportive therapy to aid clients with symptoms of depression and anxiety, and symptoms emerging from grief or loss

Alyssa was my first therapist, and I have to say my experience with her was nothing but positive. Without going into deep detail (obviously), she helped me through a really challenging time when I was feeling overwhelmed with anxiety over work and my personal life. She coached me through positive ways of dealing with everyday sources of stress while also helping me make tangible and realistic goals (short and long term) for making positive changes to make myself happier. (All of which I followed through on, and am happy I did.) I should have written this review sooner, but I'd recommend Alyssa to anyone. She's a self-proclaimed "cheerleader" when it comes to helping people accomplish goals or overcome challenges, but she's more like a really awesome, Denzel Washington-like football coach who kindly listens to what you have to say and points you in the right direction.

I've been working with Alyssa for 1.5 years now. She's helped me learn a lot about myself and my emotions. She does not jump to conclusions or thinks that she knows you better than you know you, rather she encourages you to learn about yourself. She's patient, yet pushes you to open up your mind. I get along with her very well and my life has changed since working with her!
