About Alisa

Alisa Roberts is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Utah with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate relationship trouble, trauma, parenting strains, and struggles with anxiety, depression, and anger. Her style is warm and straightforward, centered on treating people with respect and sensitivity.

Alisa adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person's needs. She aims to make the work understandable and practical. Her approach addresses day-to-day challenges like sleep problems, eating concerns, self-esteem, and career stress while also tending to deeper issues such as post-traumatic stress and grief.

She has supported people facing addiction, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue, and she works with clients affected by adoption, attachment concerns, autism spectrum issues, and sexual assault. Alisa also offers help around intimacy-related concerns, body image, codependency, and impulsivity.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration: she listens first, then helps set clear goals and steps to move forward. Sessions aim to strengthen coping skills, improve communication, and reduce reactive patterns like anger and impulsivity. She encourages small, achievable changes that build confidence over time.

Alisa works in English and brings a calm, empathetic presence to sessions. If someone is ready to start, she guides them through a matching process and scheduling so therapy can begin in a way that fits their life.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Alisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and reactive anger. Another approach centers on processing trauma and building skills to manage intense memories and emotional reactions. These methods target everyday problems like sleep disruption, impulsivity, and relationship strain.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to understand their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That means clients help shape which techniques are emphasized and when to try new strategies.

Session formats were not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life, like taking a break between commitments or avoiding travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that work around work and family schedules. Licensed professionals can guide you through which setup will best match your needs and daily routine.
