My name is Alysha Ruffatto, and I am a counseling student here at Changing Tides. Quick question: what does living in 5 different states, a life-long love for horses, and a genuine desire to see folks succeed in life have in common?

Quick answer: Me!

I am in the process of finishing my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and have recently completed my bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Oklahoma State University. My favorite topics I have learned about include the Sociology of Sexualities and Sociology of Sports, as well as Theories of Counseling, Multicultural Counseling, and Human Growth and Development. This unique combination of education and life experience has positioned me to be where I am today. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy, you and I can embark on a journey to reflect on your past experiences, as well as set goals for your future.
