Approaches That Guide Allison's Online Care
Allison often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on building a supportive, empathetic relationship and helping clients lead the direction of their own healing. This approach is helpful for people working through self-esteem, relationship concerns, and major life transitions because it emphasizes understanding and personal growth.
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-oriented method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday coping challenges.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Allison works with each person to explore which methods fit their goals, values, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as clients learn what helps them most.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it simpler to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and use different ways of communicating to meet individual needs, all while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor the work to each client.
