Alli Santa is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and low self-esteem. She focuses on practical, day-to-day changes that can make life feel more manageable. Her tone is straightforward and supportive, intended for someone looking for clear help now.
Alli aims to help clients build stronger self-understanding and resilience. She works with people struggling with isolation, communication problems, or feelings of guilt and shame. Sessions often look at patterns that keep someone stuck and identify steps that feel possible to try between meetings.
She also supports people sorting painful relationship changes such as divorce and separation. That work tends to center on clarifying values, setting boundaries, and rebuilding a sense of purpose after loss. Alli pays attention to how social anxiety or fear of judgment can block connection and recovery.
Her practice draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to craft a collaborative plan with each person. Alli describes therapy as a team effort where goals are practical and measurable. She encourages self-compassion and small, steady shifts rather than quick fixes.
Alli has nine years of clinical experience as an LPC, licensed professional counselor, in Oregon. She conducts sessions in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.
How evidence-based methods translate to online therapy
Alli uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and building new skills. One common approach she draws on helps people identify unhelpful thinking and practice alternative responses to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach centers on processing difficult experiences and building coping strategies to manage symptoms after trauma or loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alli collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and the problems they want to solve. That way the plan feels practical and can be adjusted as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help keep steady momentum between in-person visits or when life circumstances make attending in person harder. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and pacing to match what is most useful for each person.
