About Alison
Alison blends solution-focused work with cognitive behavioral techniques to help people shift unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also draws on client-centered therapy and mindfulness to create space for reflection and self-compassion. Sessions move at each person’s pace while gently encouraging progress toward specific goals.
She has eight years of clinical experience and holds an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - credential in California. Alison commonly supports people dealing with trauma, addiction, grief, parenting strain, and issues around intimacy and sexuality. She also works with concerns such as codependency, communication problems, and life transitions.
Communication can include evening exchanges when needed; Alison notes she is often more active on text boards at night and typically replies within 24 hours unless on leave. She offers live chats, video sessions, and live phone sessions for synchronous meetings. If an earlier appointment is needed, she may try to accommodate that request.
Reaching out can feel hard, and Alison aims to make the process straightforward. She encourages people to take that first step and will collaborate on a plan that fits their goals and everyday life.
