Great to meet you!

I’m Alison (Ali) Pugh, a Clinical Social Worker, USAF veteran, and mom of two. I help adults who are juggling work, family, caregiving, or major life changes that feel heavier than they look on the surface. If you’re feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, you’re in the right place. My style is calm, collaborative, and steady. There’s no pressure to have the perfect words.

My approach to therapy

We slow things down, explore what’s happening internally, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded and aligned. I draw from evidence‐based approaches like CBT, mindfulness, life‐review work, and strengths‐based reflection, always at a pace that feels safe for you.

What you can expect from me

Most of all, you get to show up exactly as you are. You don’t have to minimize what you’re carrying or have everything figured out. This is a space where your story matters and where you can move forward with clarity, compassion, and support.
