Alissa Blake Walruth, LMHC, Penn Yan School-Based Health Center 

Alissa always wanted to go into a helping profession focused on children and she got her chance. At the Penn Yan School-Based Health Center she is a licensed school counselor and is able to help children heal and grow through challenging points in their lives.

She enjoys supporting family functioning, at-risk youth (suicidality/self-harm, eating disorders, etc), trauma, and daily functioning with anxiousness or deprssion.

Her approach to therapy is to provide a safe and healing environment for children to feel comfortable sharing not only their challenges but successes with thier lives. To feel understood within each child’s little world is the first step to initiate the healing journey together.
