CONSULTATION

For organizations & clinicians seeking support to best serve their community

Grow in your understanding and practice of anti‑racist, anti‑oppressive, trauma‑informed care with the Tree of Life Counseling Center team.

Tree of Life Counseling Center is committed to empowering providers and community organizations to disrupt systems of oppression while engaging in culturally responsive, ethical healing practices. Our team comes from the same historically underserved communities we serve, and we bring lived experience, cultural knowledge, and community‑rooted care into every consultation.

Consultation Services with Alyssa Cedillo LPC-S, RPT-S™, IP-CST:

There are moments in this work when the clinical tools we were taught aren’t enough. Cases bring up questions about culture, identity, power, trauma, and community that require deeper reflection. Consultation gives you a place to think critically, get grounded, and move forward with clarity — especially when navigating culturally responsive, trauma‑informed, anti‑oppressive, or liberation‑centered care.

Our communities need us — and the better equipped we are to meet those needs, the greater impact we can have. As part of consultation, I’ll help highlight your strengths as a clinician and identify clear, grounded ways to strengthen your work with the communities you serve.

What others are saying

Working with Alyssa, I felt deeply supported and also challenged to think about how my work aligns with social justice and advocacy. I was given space to share my company’s direction without judgment, along with practical tools, not just resources, that I could actually apply. She pushes you to grow with care and accountability, and she truly DELIVERS with a PUNCH of KINDNESS.

Working with Alyssa as a fellow therapist has been one of the most insightful and educational experiences of my career. She is deeply compassionate and passionate about ancestral healing and decolonizing therapeutic approaches. Her training has helped me become more intentional in my work and more mindful of how my practice impacts clients from a social justice and cultural lens. She offers a truly holistic, informed, and supportive approach for BIPOC and Indigenous communities.

Every time I connect with Alyssa, I walk away with new knowledge that supports my growth. She consistently shows up with valuable insights and is always willing to share what has helped her grow. I highly recommend Alyssa to anyone who is ready to grow both professionally and personally.
