Alisa Neary

Alisa Neary (she/her) is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois with 9 years of clinical experience who is passionate about inspiring hope and empowering change.

Her practice has been centered on helping adults free themselves from toxic relationships and heal from interpersonal violence. Whether abuse began in childhood, occurred in a past adult relationship, or is present in a current relationship, Alisa supports people in reclaiming personal power and moving toward recovery.

She works with individuals to reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression; lessen self-blame and isolation; build self-esteem; foster self-acceptance; and learn to recognize healthy and unhealthy relationship patterns.

Using a person-centered approach, Alisa aims to provide a therapeutic experience that feels comfortable, non-judgmental, and empathic. She holds a belief that every person strives for and has the capacity to fulfill their potential.

Alisa views the steps people take to explore services—such as looking into BetterHelp—as signs of readiness for change. She offers support and guidance on the journey toward self-discovery and healing, and welcomes those who think she may be a good fit to reach out.

She looks forward to meeting you.
