Great to meet you!

Hi there! My name is Allison and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Although I reside in Georgia, I also hold licensure in Virginia, meaning I can see clients in both of these states.

In 2010, I graduated from Argosy University Atlanta with a Master’s Degree in Community Counseling. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I have worked with individuals of all ages in various settings such as a child advocacy center, in-home therapy, psychiatric hospital, private practice, and on a military base. I currently work in managed care, in addition to seeing clients for individual therapy.

I primarily support women and LGBTQ+ individuals in navigating life's challenges, fostering self-awareness, and embracing personal growth through a compassionate, affirming approach.

My passion for this work is rooted in helping people recognize their worth, develop their voice, and create meaningful change in their lives—all while contributing to broader systems of growth and empowerment.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and person-centered, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other modalities to support meaningful, sustainable change. I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and values while developing practical tools to navigate challenges, build self-awareness, and move toward a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. I tailor therapy to each client's unique needs, strengths, identity, and goals.

What you can expect from me

In our rst few sessions, we'll build a trusting relationship, get to know your unique experiences, and explore what you're carrying, whether that's anxiety, trauma, or the added weight of navigating the world as a woman or LGBTQIA+ person. From there we'll collaboratively map out a path forward. You can expect a space where you feel heard, respected, and free to be fully yourself, with a plan you helped build and can actually use between sessions.
