Allison being my therapist was life changing. She truly helped me make sense of life, understand my thinking patterns, and helped me approach life in a way to get where I wanted to be. I feel so lucky and honored to have had her in my life. Only reason I don't see her anymore is because I moved, but damn I miss my weekly sessions. Allison truly from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for everything :)

More about Allison
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and board-certified behavior analyst (BCBA). Since 2012, I’ve helped my clients break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in life. Life is too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled.
I combine a person-centered approach with solution-focused therapy. In working with me, you will experience an empathic soul who believes you are able to solve your own problems. I am here to make sense of the patterns in your life holding you back. Once you can see the patterns, identifying and pursuing a solution becomes much easier. I have worked with parents, children, individuals, and couples.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
