Alister Blücker, LPC, LCDC, NCC

Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor practicing for 11 years. I specialize in depression, anxiety, substance abuse/compulsions, gender non-conforming and other Queer issues, social anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self esteem building, improving communication, and life transitions as well as many others.

Are you seeking therapy for the first time or looking for a new therapist? Have you had a bad experience with therapy in the past and feel unsure if you want to try again? I understand the hesitancy and fear that can accompany new things. Depression and anxiety can make things even harder. I provide a gentle start to make this new transition easier. My mission is to help my clients heal from the inside out for *true, lasting recovery*. I serve as a guide as they uncover the root causes of their emotional pain. They then begin to experience the joys of life and feel competent in their ability to face the hard. You need a *champion* to help you uncover and create a life you feel proud of and want to share with others.
My primary motivation for becoming a therapist was to fill in the gaps that leave minority and stereotyped populations without proper support. I specialize in substance abuse and compulsive behaviors and Queer and trans issues. I also understand persons of color need a therapist who approaches care from *their* perspective. My client-centered approach utilizes various therapy techniques in order to custom tailor care.
Give yourself a chance to do something different, *something better*, than what you have been doing. Reach out to me today.
