About Elyse
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 16 years of experience. Elyse Alleman helps people address addictions, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, and major life changes. She works directly with individuals to talk through problems and make practical plans for change.
Elyse uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral tools to keep sessions focused and actionable. She also draws on mindfulness practices to help clients manage stress in the moment. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques are part of how she supports people to clarify values and change patterns.
In session Elyse tends to listen first and then offer observations that can shift perspective. She helps people name unhelpful thoughts, test small behavioral changes, and build routines that reduce overwhelm. Conversations are practical and paced to the person’s comfort.
Her background includes many years working with substance use issues and with people affected by severe mental illness, including supporting their family members. That experience informs how she approaches safety, relapse risk, and ongoing coping needs.
People who choose Elyse should expect a collaborative process. She helps identify short-term goals and tracks progress across sessions. Before booking, confirm current session formats and any logistical details through the site’s scheduling flow.

How Elyse applies practical approaches in online work
Elyse uses client-centered therapy to follow the person’s lead, listening first and shaping sessions around what the client brings. This approach helps with stress, grief, relationship concerns, and decisions where the person needs clarity and support.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing mood swings because it breaks problems into clear, addressable steps.
Mindfulness practices are used to build skills for managing stress and strong emotions. Simple breathing exercises and attention strategies are taught and practiced to reduce reactivity during day-to-day challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elyse will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means adjusting tools and priorities as progress is tracked across sessions.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Discuss practical scheduling needs and any preferred session length during the matching and scheduling steps.
