About Alysia

Dr. Alysia Smith brings a doctorate in Developmental Psychology and two master’s degrees - one in Professional Counseling and one in Human Service Counseling with a cognate in Addiction and Recovery. She is licensed and practices in Wisconsin, drawing on six years of clinical experience to support people navigating stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, mood concerns, and a range of life transitions. She emphasizes a strengths-based approach, viewing each person as the expert of their own story and building on existing resources to address what feels most difficult.

Her work integrates evidence-informed methods to help clients identify patterns, develop coping skills, and make meaningful changes in daily life. She has experience working with individuals facing depression, eating and parenting concerns, anger and self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, and the particular needs of young adults and veterans. Dr. Smith welcomes conversations about identity, multicultural concerns, and life purpose as part of a holistic plan for healing.

Beginning therapy can take courage, and she acknowledges that step while offering a collaborative, compassionate process aimed at practical strategies and lasting progress. Prospective clients can expect a thoughtful, individualized approach that honors their goals and pace.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy and Practical Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can be useful for mood instability and relationship difficulties. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people strengthen their own motivation for change, often used with addiction, ambivalence about change, or lifestyle adjustments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Alysia Smith works collaboratively with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. The aim is to tailor strategies so they feel relevant and sustainable for each person.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care across locations within the therapist’s service area, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for the client while working toward meaningful change.
