About Alison

Alison Silcox is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 13 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenge of life changes. Alison focuses on practical, respectful care and supports clients through moments that feel overwhelming or stuck.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She listens first, then builds a plan shaped by each person's goals. Conversations are tailored to what matters most to the client, whether that means reducing worry, improving confidence, or finding a way forward after a loss.

Alison uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also brings solution-focused techniques to shorten the path to small, useful changes. When trauma or deeper hurt is present, she draws on trauma-focused approaches to address those experiences safely.

Sessions are aimed at practical steps and clearer thinking. Clients work on skills they can use between meetings, such as stress management, communication strategies, and ways to rebuild motivation. The work balances short-term goals with attention to longer patterns that affect relationships and purpose.

Alison treats people with sensitivity and compassion. She frames therapy as a partnership where courage to start is honored, and steady progress is the shared goal. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Alison commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try different responses. CBT involves naming patterns that increase worry or low mood and practicing alternate behaviors and thoughts to change daily experience.

She also draws on mindfulness-based work to help people notice thoughts and sensations without judgment. Mindfulness exercises can reduce reactivity to stress and improve attention to what matters in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alison will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods collaboratively so the plan fits each person’s needs.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a work break. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many people find video or phone sessions helpful for regular progress and for practicing skills between meetings.
