Welcome! Do you currently struggle with any of the following: anxiety; indecisiveness; low self-esteem; deep, sometimes inexplicable feelings of guilt; confusion around trusting your "gut;" a heavy focus on wanting to make others like you; feeling disconnected from others; a nagging feeling you’re doing something wrong or there may be something wrong with you? The good news is, these are not inherent traits people are born with and you are not bound to eternally struggle with these things! This therapy will give you the opportunity to uncover the root causes of these struggles in order to make changes in the here-and-now. Please click on the "Visit Website" link to find out more about the benefits of this therapy. I care deeply for the people I work with and through genuine collaboration, my clients describe a sense of feeling truly heard and understood. I invite you to email or call today to find out more! *PLEASE EMAIL ME DIRECTLY AT alisonmtherapy@gmail.com AS THE GOODTHERAPY MESSAGING SYSTEM DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE WORKING* Thank you and I look forward to communicating more soon!
You don’t have to carry it alone. Whether you’re healing from trauma, navigating depression or anxiety, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, therapy can help you find clarity, relief, and connection. I create a safe, supportive space where you can be fully yourself. Together we'll explore what's holding you back and build tools that help you move forward with more peace and clarity. You're not broken- you're human, and healing is possible!
Let's embrace change and embark on a path towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I’m a therapist who wants to help people live a meaningful and value-driven life. Working under the supervision of two licensed psychologists, I specialize in providing psychotherapy for adults working through life transitions, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and loss, relationship issues, and psychedelic integration. I also provide ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP). I take an integrative and tailored approach to therapy, utilizing evidence-based practices, such as Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with humanistic and relational frameworks by focusing on meaning-making, acceptance, and the holistic view of each individual. I work to help my clients change their relationship with difficult thoughts and emotions, identify their values, and take committed action (after we answer the “why?” I want us to answer the “so what?”). During therapy we will work on fostering authentic connection so we can dive deeper into your life challenges, celebrate your progress, and facilitate meaningful change. We will work collaboratively to identify clear therapeutic goals to provide a roadmap for personal growth. We will explore alternative perspectives and challenge self limiting patterns to open the door to new possibilities and empower you to make positive changes. We will also explore acceptance and work towards embracing your strengths and vulnerabilities so you can build resilience and develop a more authentic and fulfilling life. If you are seeking a therapist who can guide you through life's challenges, empower you to align with your values, and help you cultivate a more meaningful and value-driven life, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can embark on a transformative journey towards greater well-being.
I work with clients to create an environment that feels supportive, helpful, and safe. I tailor the therapy experience to each person. Sessions can be whatever you need them to be in that moment. There's no "right" way to do therapy! I treat clients holistically, as I believe that physical, mental, and social health are all connected.
Therapy can help you to get to the roots of your issues, develop a better understanding of yourself and provide you with tools to more effectively manage your life. My role, as your therapist, is an objective and non-biased one. I will focus on listening to you, guiding you through a thorough exploration of yourself- past, present and future- and fostering insight. Your own insights will guide you to make decisions and take subsequent actions. Whatever the concern that leads you to therapy, rest assured that I will be deeply invested in supporting you through the process, freeing you to live the life you desire.

At the heart of everything I do is this simple belief: you deserve to feel deeply known and accepted, exactly as you are. I know what it's like to feel stuck—caught between where you are now and where your heart longs to be. My role isn't to fix you (because you're not broken), but to help you discover the incredible strengths you already possess and use them as stepping stones toward the life you want.
As a mental health professional in the age of the new millenium, I would describe my approach to helping people as integrative and holistic. As a therapist, I think it is crucial to create a loving, safe environment for each individual. Then specific to each individual, I create a plan integrating cognitive behavioral techniques, psychotherapy, visualization, relaxation, EMDR, hypnosis and reiki. Together with the client, we create a new positive self-image that can completely transform an individual's life. As Nelson Mandela said," Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure".
Are you stuck in a cycle of anger, guilt, and shame that never seems to break — despite trying to manage it on your own? Have you tried anger classes or white-knuckling it, only to find yourself back in the same patterns? Struggling with anxiety that fuels the fire? I work with adults throughout via secure video or in person, with a particular passion for working with men — including those new to therapy who aren't sure what to expect. A licensed Psychologist and national authority on anger management, I bring 20+ years of experience helping people tame their anger and ease their anxiety. I specialize in men's therapy and offer individual therapy and couples counseling — with a direct, no-nonsense approach that gets to the root of your issues for real, lasting change. If you're exhausted from trying to manage your anger alone, you don't have to keep white-knuckling it. Whether you're new to therapy or have tried it before, I'll meet you where you are — with honesty, warmth, and no judgment. Let's talk and find out if we're a good fit to help you become a calmer, more grounded version of yourself. Although I help clients with many issues and goals, I am considered a national authority on anger management and anger therapy. I have over 20 years or experience, 7 years of specialized education, and intensive training in anger management, anxiety and other psychotherapy treatments.
Psychotherapy can help end depression, anxiety, and bothersome thoughts and behaviors. It can also alleviate pain and help you enjoy life more. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York, I specialize in helping clients discover and resolve the root cause(s) of their symptoms. I also help them understand how maladaptive thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors can keep them from achieving their goals and attaining happiness, so they can free up energy to make positive changes in their lives. Your session is time for you; it is your time to be heard.
Everyone has different needs, and as such I tune in to sense what clients need throughout the session. My goal is to make you feel comfortable enough to raise any issue at all, whether it be about current or past experiences, or how you are experiencing the therapy session. I use an interpersonal approach, and while I am listening closely, I am also open, responsive, and present, and will be sharing my thoughts, questions, and ideas about what is going on in your life and what I think might be most helpful to you. I use a direct and interactive approach, which I believe helps people to engage more fully in the therapy process. Together, we will clarify problems, gain more insight into how external situations are affecting your mental health, apply strategies to minimize negative behavior patterns, and cope more effectively with difficult emotions such as sadness, anger, or pain. Although I am solution-focused and results-oriented, I also encourage self-reflection so that problems are less likely to recur in the future. At times, this may require confronting past experiences that are surfacing in the present in the form of depression, anxiety, anger, problems with intimacy, or unwanted thoughts or behaviors. In addition to working closely with clients to manage symptoms of depression and anxiety, I help people use psychotherapy to work through difficulties or obstacles they may be facing at different points in their lives, whether this be finding the right career path, resolving ongoing conflicts in relationships, coping with stress or painful experiences such as loss or trauma, or struggling with addiction or other self-destructive behaviors. I also specialize in treating eating issues and distorted body image, as well as problems in work, partner, peer, and family relationships.
