Meet your Providers

Turns out, we are all warm and relational...

Alana Semchenko, PsyD.

I completed my doctorate degree in clinical psychology in 2009 and work with clients across the lifespan.


I believe therapy is most effective when the relationship is authentic and collaborative, these are two essential components. I do my best to show up to each session as my genuine self and I want clients to feel safe enough to do the same. Therapy should make room for a person’s strengths, interests, and creativity. Whether you love art, music, writing, or something else entirely, I enjoy finding ways to use your natural talents and abilities to support growth and healing.


I treat trauma and attachment-related concerns, anxiety and mood problems, grief and stress-related disorders, and behavioral concerns. I have worked with adoptive and foster families since very early in my training and remain deeply passionate about this work. In addition to therapy, I enjoy consulting with other providers and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to support clients and families in a well-rounded way.


I completed EMDR training in 2014 and earned my EMDR Child Specialist Certification in 2022. I also integrate IFS, DBT, and CBT techniques throughout my work. When working with children, I incorporate play whenever possible because I know it helps children learn, connect, and express themselves more naturally.

 I earned my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from University of Mary in 2019 and have experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults. 

​

I believe therapy is most meaningful when people feel safe enough to show up as their authentic selves--without judgement, pressure, or the expectation to have everything figured out. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to develop a deeper connection with yourself and the life you want to build. When appropriate, humor, lightheartedness, and genuine human connection can be just as valuable as the hard work of therapy.

​

I am a Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) clinician, with a special interest in supporting women and families through pregnancy, postpartum, and the many transitions that come with parenthood. This includes postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, birth trauma, maternal rage, identity shifts, etc. 

​

I completed my EMDR training for adults and earned my Child Specialist certification. I also utilize principles from IFS, DBT, CBT, and art/sandtray therapy. Interventions are tailored to each person's unique needs and goals. I use trauma-informed interventions to support individuals with trauma and attachment-related concerns, anxiety and mood disorders, behavioral challenges, and perinatal mental health.

I work with adults who are navigating trauma, life transitions, stress, anxiety, and the parts of life that can feel overwhelming or difficult to put into words. My style is warm, collaborative, and relational, with humor used when it fits — because therapy can be meaningful without feeling overly formal or uncomfortable.

​

I have a strong interest in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, as well as first responders and law enforcement professionals who often carry stress, responsibility, and difficult experiences in ways others may not fully understand. My goal is to provide a space where clients feel seen, respected, and supported as they work toward healing and change.

​

My work is trauma-informed and person-centered. I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, EMDR, and IFS-informed approaches, and I tailor therapy to each person’s needs, goals, and pace. I believe therapy is not about judging where you have been, but helping you better understand yourself, your nervous system, your patterns, and what you need in order to move forward.

​

I strive to create a therapy space that feels approachable, respectful, and real. My goal is for clients to feel comfortable showing up as they are, while also feeling supported in making meaningful changes at a pace that feels manageable.
