Feeling stuck or overwhelmed?
You’re not alone.
You’ve tried to push through, but the overthinking, stress, or emotional fatigue keep coming back.
You want to feel more grounded. To stop questioning everything. To know that you’re not alone in what you’re carrying.
The truth? You don’t have to figure it out by yourself anymore.

Meet Your Licensed Therapist
Hi, I’m Alayna.
I’m here to help you move through what feels heavy.
Welcome to Therapy with Alayna. Maybe worry takes up more of your day than you’d like, you feel on edge, or intrusive thoughts leave you caught in a cycle of “what ifs.” Perhaps changes in your mood make it hard to feel steady, or you’re struggling to feel connected, express your needs, or set boundaries in your relationships. You may be navigating a life change and feeling unsure of what comes next. If any of this feels familiar, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
I’m Alayna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Licensed Professional Counselor offering virtual individual therapy for adults in Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, and New Jersey. I specialize in anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, relationship struggles, and life transitions. I welcome both insurance and private-pay clients.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. I create a relaxed space where you can laugh, cry, and show up as yourself—including sharing the thoughts you hesitate to say out loud and the parts of life that feel hard to manage. I’ll meet you with empathy and validation while offering honest feedback, gently challenging patterns that may be holding you back, and helping you follow through on the changes you want to make. Together, we’ll build insight and practical skills, balancing support with opportunities for growth at a pace that feels manageable.
I draw from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, and Person-Centered Therapy. My style is eclectic, meaning I thoughtfully draw from different treatment approaches to fit your unique experiences, needs, and goals. Together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck and work toward changes that align with what matters most to you.
Whether you want to respond differently to anxiety, manage mood symptoms, communicate more clearly, set healthier boundaries, or navigate a new chapter, our work will focus on what matters most to you. My experience across inpatient, outpatient, in-home, and private practice settings helps me meet clients with a range of experiences and needs.
You deserve to feel like yourself again. Contact me to learn more about working together and taking the next step.
Therapy Can Help With:
Anxiety can be overwhelming and affect every aspect of your life. Therapy can help you identify the root causes of your anxiety, and develop coping mechanisms to manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Boundaries
Setting boundaries is essential for protecting your mental health and well-being, but it can be difficult to know where to start. Therapy can help you identify healthy boundaries, and develop the confidence to assert them in your personal and professional life.
Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and other mood disorders can make it hard to find joy in anything, and impact your physical and emotional health. Therapy can help you work through your feelings, and create a plan to manage your depression and regain your happiness and well-being.
Communication
Communication is key to healthy relationships, but it can be challenging when you have different needs and expectations. Therapy can help you learn effective communication skills, and improve your relationships with your loved ones.
Life is full of transitions, from starting a new job to becoming a parent to dealing with loss. Therapy can help you navigate these changes, and develop the resilience and coping skills you need to face whatever comes your way.
