About Alayna

Alayna Abeyta is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado. She focuses on practical help for people struggling with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, anger, sleep problems, and self-esteem. Her approach is respectful and down-to-earth, aimed at making early steps feel manageable for busy people and concerned parents.

She spends time listening first, then builds a plan shaped around each person's needs and goals. Sessions often include clear strategies to manage strong feelings, tools to handle cravings and setbacks, and techniques to improve sleep and daily routines. Alayna uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations grounded in the client's experience and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

With eight years of experience, she has worked with people facing life changes, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and career or caregiver stress. She also supports those coping with bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. The work includes practical coping skills, communication coaching, and planning for difficult transitions.

Alayna adapts the pace to what each person needs, offering both short-term coaching and longer-term support. She encourages small steps that fit into daily life, such as better sleep habits or brief behavioral experiments. If you want a counselor who listens and then helps you try realistic changes, she can be a practical partner.

To begin, clients follow the site's start process and complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling. Alayna speaks English and practices in Colorado as an LPC.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building sessions around what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals that feel realistic for daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gives clear tools to change thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and addictive patterns.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods to try first, and will adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clearer. That process includes checking what helps most and introducing practical experiments to test new habits.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not detailed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow for brief check-ins during a workday, and support consistent follow-through on homework such as sleep logs or behavioral tasks. Some people find remote sessions reduce travel time and help maintain momentum between appointments. The focus remains on usable tools and real-life changes rather than lengthy theory.
