I am a licensed professional counselor in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I have been practicing professionally since 1995 and have my masters of science in counseling and human relations from Villanova University. I believe strongly in meeting clients where they are - person centered therapy - and then working with them using a blended counseling model to help them reach their goals.
I am a certified clinical trauma professional, a certified advanced alcohol and drug counselor and a certified co occurring disorders professional diplomate. I use narrative trauma therapy as well as motivational interviewing and psychodynamic psychotherapy dependent upon needs of each individual person. Your treatment plan will be individually tailored to your needs and I will respect your goals and the path you wish to walk.
Your courage and bravery and commitment to self care are noted and I commend you for reaching out. I look forward to our work together.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amie Allanson-Dundon. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I didn’t think therapy would work for me, because I don’t like talking to people much about myself. I’ve learned to express myself more and actually see a change in myself since I’ve started working with Amie. She’s changed my mind completely about therapy and would definitely recommend it and her to anyone who needs it.
