Hi there, I'm Allison!
Empathetic, Relatable, Attentive, Insightful: I bring these client-identified attributes into each and every session. I work well with adolescents & adults facing transition stress, as well as those managing depression or anxiety. Let me help you achieve greater clarity and peace, both within yourself and in your most cherished relationships.
My focus
While there is no "ideal" client, a spirit of readiness and curiosity is helpful, as is a willingness to complete homework assignments and apply skills in between sessions. I've been particularly successful with clients seeking to identify maladaptive patterns, who wish to live with less anxiety, and who are yearning for a fuller, more joyful life.
My approach
Establishing trust and creating a safe working relationship is my first priority; from there, I lean heavily on experiential and mindfulness-based approaches. Clients are often given homework designed to help them apply the skills and insights gained in therapy to everyday life. Values clarification provides a compass for future behavioral change.
