About Alissa

Alissa Bohmann, LPC, welcomes adults who are weighing the decision to begin therapy and seeks to provide a supportive, collaborative space for that work.

Background and approach

She frames therapy as a process of discovering how past experiences shape present behavior and draws on a range of methods to tailor care to each person’s needs. With eleven years of clinical experience, she combines a strengths-based stance with careful exploration of identity, attachment, and relational patterns.

Her background includes focused training in adoption and foster care issues through the Center for Adoption Support and Education, which informs her sensitivity to questions about origins and belonging.

Alissa integrates practical tools and reflective inquiry to address a wide variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, ADHD, caregiving strain, and career transitions. She accepts international clients and holds a Wisconsin LPC license (WI LPC 6315-125), offering sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Prospective clients begin by selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to therapist availability.

Integrating therapeutic approaches for online care

Alissa blends Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Based Therapy, and client-centered methods to support people navigating stress, trauma, relationship challenges, and identity questions. Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps people understand and relate to the different inner parts that influence feelings and behaviors, which can be useful for processing trauma, anxiety, and patterns that feel stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and emotional responses, offering a pathway to improve communication and closeness in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, creating a respectful space where clients guide the pace and focus of their healing.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will explore a client's goals, history, and preferences to determine which methods or combination of methods are the best fit. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what an individual needs in the moment rather than imposing a single model.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it possible to access these approaches with more flexibility. These options allow clients to engage from different locations, fit sessions into busy schedules, and continue work consistently while adapting to practical life constraints.
