About Alisha

Alisha Dreiling is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people with relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, stress, anxiety, and mood difficulties such as depression. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.

Alisha works from a client-centered stance and integrates attachment-based thinking, Jungian ideas, mindfulness, and somatic approaches. In practice that means she listens first, tracks patterns in relationships and behavior, and brings attention to bodily experiences linked to emotion. She aims to help people notice how past attachments shape present reactions and to build greater self-awareness.

In session she tends to slow the pace so people can describe their experience without pressure. Conversations include clarifying what matters most, naming repeated patterns, and trying small experiments between sessions to test new ways of relating. Mindfulness and somatic tools are used to help manage overwhelming feelings in the moment.

Alisha also addresses specific concerns like body image, eating issues, attachment wounds, caregiving stress, codependency, divorce and separation, and postpartum depression. She frames these topics in practical terms and helps people organize coping skills around daily life demands.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Her fee approach uses a cancelable subscription model that varies by location, so prospective clients should review pricing when they match and book.

How attachment, mindfulness, and somatic work translate to online sessions

Alisha draws on attachment-based work to map how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach focuses on connection and relational responses, which can help with intimacy, codependency, and family of origin issues. She also uses mindfulness practices to teach simple attention and grounding skills. These exercises are taught in-session and practiced between meetings to reduce anxiety and manage strong emotions. Somatic work brings attention to bodily sensations tied to emotion. In sessions she may guide breath awareness, gentle movement, or noticing where tension lives in the body to help people shift distressing states. Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that match the client’s needs. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most. The original biography does not list specific remote formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday or to avoid travel. They can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or reduce reliance on being on camera, depending on the session format offered.
