ABOUT ME


Counseling is not only a resource for those feeling broken; It is a proactive tool for maintaining balance amid life’s chaos.  I am here to help you navigate challenges and achieve your personal goals, fostering a sense of stability in your journey. It is essential to process how your experiences have shaped your life. Together, we can develop a roadmap for moving forward and crafting the next chapters of your beautiful story.


"Every person's story is unique and profoundly influential, shaping who we are from our very first breath. Embracing your narrative can be empowering." -Alisha Lohse


I hold a Master’s degree in School Counseling with a specialization in Military Families and Culture, complemented by coursework in clinical mental health counseling to meet the state of Florida’s requirements to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My experience includes working with children and adolescents in school settings, providing guidance and solution-focused brief therapy utilizing Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) among other evidence-based therapeutic modalities. As a proud veteran of the United States Military, I have a unique perspective that enhances my ability to support fellow veterans facing challenges with reintegration and transition. 


My Approach to Counseling


My integrative approach combines various evidence-based therapeutic modalities to meet each client's unique needs and is rooted in empathy, respect, and a deep understanding of the human experience. A strong therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of effective counseling. I am dedicated to building trust and connection with my clients. I create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors openly and honestly.


My Commitment to My Clients


I am committed to delivering the highest quality of care. I believe in the inherent potential for growth and healing in everyone, and I am honored to accompany my clients on their journeys. I provide culturally sensitive and inclusive counseling services for individuals from all backgrounds, affirming all identities and expressions.
