HI, I’m alyssa!

As 4:16 Counseling’s owner and your therapist, my desire is to create an environment to honor the sacred, hard work of healing. almost everyone spends a large majority of their time avoiding pain at all costs, but you, brave one, have chosen to turn towards your hurt and tend to it instead. I want you to have the required support, safety, and compassionate witnessing that this process deserves—that you and your story have always deserved.

I believe that your restoration and redemption can be accessed through continual commitment to yourself, often with its earliest beginnings in showing up to weekly counseling. we will move together towards a lasting, transformative belief that you, too, can be worthy of your own time, effort, and care. With me, you will be met by a real person—deeply caring and compassionate, equally as sarcastic and bold in personality. We can absolutely do hard things together.

WHY 4:16?

Our name is a reference to scripture, specifically 2 Corinthians 4:16-18, a passage that both biblically validates our suffering and anchors us in enduring hope:

“Therefore we do not give up. Even though our outer person is being destroyed, our inner person is being renewed day by day. For our momentary light affliction is producing for us an absolutely incomparable eternal weight of glory. So we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

This scripture became a lifeline during my own experience with suicidal ideation, offering both validation in pain and the promise of renewal. Since practicing, I’ve witnessed this same piece of scripture meet others in their darkest moments—EXTENDING not only comfort but a path toward safety, redemption, and healing.

Without this verse, there is no guarantee neither I nor 4:16 Counseling would exist. Our name is a continual remembrance of this and the furthered preservation of life and recovery.

where your redemption and recovery go hand in hand.
