A stress-centered approach to mental health.

Hi! I’m Dr. Alana
Let’s make things feel lighter and more clear.
I’m a board-certified clinical psychologist with over 15 years in the mental health field. Throughout the years, one pattern has become impossible to ignore: chronic stress underlies many of the mental health struggles people seek help for.
Because of this, my work has expanded beyond mental health diagnoses to focus on the role stress plays in overall mental health and well-being.
