Hi, my name is Allison. I've been a therapist for thirty years working with individuals and teens who have experienced trauma. I specialize in Attachment and Complex Developmental Trauma . My clinical orientation in Attachment is specialized in complex family systems and relational (complex) trauma.
My training in attachment theory and the neurobiology of trauma helps address the deeper wounds that are embedded within the body, heart and mind. I believe the safety of the therapeutic relationship allows you to engage in meaningful exploration of the issues that are impacting your well-being.

You feel like you’re always lugging around a suitcase filled with sadness and worry. It’s utterly exhausting, and it keeps you from enjoying anything else. Anxiety and depression completely change how you see yourself and the world. You’re tired, on edge, and irritable, which then affects how the world sees YOU. It’s a vicious cycle that robs you of your confidence and motivation, which makes it even HARDER to escape their clutch. It’s no wonder you feel like tears are ready to well up at any moment – like you’re about to break inside. You know you need help, but getting there feels like climbing Mount Everest right now.

Are you struggling to get through the day? Are you afraid that you will never feel "normal" again? Does your teenager seem edgy, worried, withdrawn or isolated? Do they spend hours scrolling online or playing video games alone, neglecting real-life relationships and responsibilities? I work with high-schoolers and adults who feel lonely, sad, worried, pressured, sleepless, exhausted and inadequate. I help patients identify underlying mental health and neurological conditions that may be contributing to these feelings; address negative patterns of behavior and learn powerful new coping skills to navigate life's challenges.

We all struggle from time to time with stress, but anxiety and depression can feel debilitating and limiting. When your stress starts to feel this way (intrusive thoughts, obsessive thoughts, your heart races thinking about the thing), these are signals that your body (your nervous system) is going into fight or flight. Let’s help your nervous system calm and explore what is stressing you out.

I believe no one should have to carry the weight of their pain alone. That belief is why I became a therapist. And it's the foundation of every conversation I have with every person who sits across from me. I believe that somewhere beneath exhaustion, fear, disconnection, and confusion — there is a version of you that is capable of peace. Not a perfect life. Not the absence of struggle. But a life where you feel present, connected, and no longer defined by your pain. Maybe you've been asking yourself — is this really the best life has to offer? Perhaps the relationship you once felt safe in now feels distant or broken.

Neurofeedback is a drug-free treatment that allows us to train an individual’s brain to achieve a healthier pattern of functioning. Neurofeedback guides brain functions by measuring brain waves and providing a feedback signal. Electroencephalography (EEG) is recorded during the neurofeedback treatment. Then, its various components are extracted and presented to the patient using a feedback loop in the form of either audio or video feedback. By utilizing the brain’s natural neuroplasticity, we can achieve long-lasting symptom improvement.
