Dr Alissa Jerud

Licensed Psychologist

I specialize in treating anxiety-related disorders using highly effective, exposure-based cognitive behavioral therapy.

About Me

As a Licensed Psychologist, I specialise in anxiety-related disorders. I use exposure-based cognitive behavioural therapy, working collaboratively to gently confront fears. This practical approach helps you build lasting coping skills. If anxiety impacts your daily life, we can explore clear, evidence-based strategies. My aim is to help you find a steady path towards greater calm and control.

Approach

Using exposure-focused CBT, I guide a stepwise, collaborative process that helps you face feared situations with measurable practice and clear goals. In my Philadelphia office we move at a pace you can manage, pairing in-session exposures with brief between-session tasks and simple tracking so progress becomes visible. Sessions focus on skill rehearsal, reality-testing anxious predictions, and building steady coping strategies that translate to daily life. This approach tends to suit teens and adults ready for practical, evidence-based change.
