Alisha Barnes

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a licensed professional counselor with an additional certification as a certified complex trauma professional. I graduated from Chestnut Hill College with my M.S. in clinical and counseling psychology in 2016. I have been practicing for 6 years and have significant experience working with addiction issues, traumatic experiences including PTSD, codependency, depression and anxiety, along with other mental health concerns. I believe in a person centered, trauma-informed approach. I recognize all aspects of the individual and work to bring about awareness as to how our past experiences impact the manner in which we interact with others in adulthood. I believe in recognizing the needs of the individual, working together with the client to identify treatment goals and developing a treatment plan that is tailored to those unique and specific needs, while being flexible to allow for any changes needed over the course of treatment.

I believe in the ability for us as individuals to make behavioral changes and will work alongside you to help you grow and reach your identified goals. I would describe myself as open-minded, non-judgmental, compassionate and empathetic. I value the building of the therapeutic relationship, recognizing the importance of honesty and respect through the process. I hope to work with you in your own healing journey.

Please be kind to yourself,

Alisha Barnes

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions – online therapy can be an effective option and has been shown to offer outcomes comparable to traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility: people can choose the format that fits their needs and comfort level, whether that is a video session, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it simpler to incorporate therapy into a busy life.

Therapy delivered online is provided by licensed professionals, and clients may request a different therapist at any time if they prefer a new fit. The combination of demonstrated effectiveness and practical convenience makes online therapy a viable path for many seeking support.
