Getting to know Alisha Padilla
Welcome! I'm Alisha
Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with diverse populations facing a wide range of challenges, including trauma, addiction, long term incarceration, mental health struggles, and life transitions. I understand how negative experiences and deeply held self-beliefs can shape the way we navigate life. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your pace, helping you process past experiences, challenge limiting beliefs, and build a healthier, more empowered path forward.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Everything we do in session will be presented in a collaborative way to create an empowering environment for you. I take a strengths-based approach during sessions so we can achieve sustainable change. Reaching your goals will always be something we visit throughout some of our sessions; discussing what is working and challenging you in what may need to change to have a better outcome.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
