About me

Whatever you are going through, I'm here to help. I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. Most of my counseling experience has been working with adults, teens and families but I also worked in a Crisis Stabilization Unit and I see clients in private practice. Before becoming a counselor I was the Director of a Preschool for more than a decade. I

When I work with clients I usually use the Cognitive Behavioral approach which means I tend to focus on problem solving and bringing about positive changes in their lives by altering the way they think about things. Sometime people can get caught up in thought patterns that aren’t really helping them so changing learned thought patterns can help them change their perspective.

I know choosing to start therapy is a big decision and can feel a little scary but I aim to make you feel comfortable and I'll be there for you every step of the way. Let's get started on this journey together!!

She’s an amazing, thoughtful therapist! I know she listens and doesn’t ever make me feel judged or different.

I've only been seeing Allyson for a couple weeks and she's already helped so much. She really seems to get me and makes me feel like I'm not crazy. I have a lot of confidence that we can work through all my different triggers one by one.

Allyson has really been helping me deal with a lot of the feelings I’ve had while grieving and making strives to move forward with my life. It’s only been a few weeks but I can already feel my mindset gradually changing. She’s amazing!

Have you ever felt like no one really understands? I have for a while. It’s been a short time but Allyson seems to 100% get it. She helps me feel like I’m not crazy and is helping me work on my self esteem, but strength and more things that will help me be a better stronger happier human going forward. Plus she’s patient, she will talk when I’m up for it.. that’s hard to find. No pressure.
Couldn’t be happier with ending up with her!
