Therapist Spotlight

Alesha Barnes

I help individuals (and now Groups!) through life changes, tough choices, traumatic experiences, death, loss & grief, assault, aging, difficult thoughts and behaviors that can make our lives hard to navigate. My professional experience, training and interest has grown to include all people struggling with the daily challenges of life or have experienced traumatic events such as the death of a loved one, serious accidents, various types of assaults, and any other events that were life-changing and out-of-your control. I am especially honored to work with those with maladaptive behaviors such as self-harm, suicidal ideation and alcohol or drug dependence. You are not alone.

I have over 13 years of experience working with clients in various settings including outpatient, community mental health, school social work, residential and inpatient. I am well-versed in the range of treatment available and able to meet the needs of most levels of functioning.

Alyssa Boinais

Hi, I’m Alyssa! I’m a Licensed Masters Social Worker and the founder of Be Mindful Therapy. I’ve spent years helping people work through things like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, but where I really thrive is supporting women who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just trying to figure out the next chapter of their lives.

I especially love working with new moms as they adjust to the rollercoaster of parenthood, and with young adults or college students navigating the (sometimes messy) shift into adult life. My approach is compassionate and down-to-earth—I’ll meet you where you’re at and give you space to be yourself.

At the end of the day, therapy with me is about giving you a safe space to grow, heal, and feel more grounded in your everyday life.
