Dr. Allen is super easy to talk to. My first session with her went great. I look forward to talking to her more and continuing to learn from her on how to cope with daily anxiety and depression.

Dr. Allen has been a tremendous help to me in a very difficult time. I was nervous about therapy, but she makes it so easy. She is understanding and very easy to talk to. It feels like talking to a friend that just gets you. I like that she always leaves me with a goal for that week. It makes me feel like I'm not just venting, but actually accomplishing something and making progress. She has been amazing.
