And you're ready for relief. You're ready to have meaningful relationships without your past getting in the way. You're ready to stop the choas in your mind. You're ready to feel confident. Most of all, you're ready to love yourself & be happy with OR without all the things.

Hi, I'm Allison Logue! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Encinitas, San Diego.

Alight Therapy Group values working with a wide range of people of all sizes, races, sexual orientations, and gender identities. I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and have lived experience with eating disorder recovery.

Life’s challenges can sometimes make it feel like joy and comfort are out of reach—no matter how strong or resilient you are. Everyone faces tough times, and even the most resilient individuals benefit from support when navigating life’s hurdles. While family and friends can offer valuable encouragement, there are times when we need more personalized guidance to move forward. Together, we can build the tools and strategies to shift your perspective, unlock new strengths, and bring back the vitality and joy you deserve. My mission is to help you reconnect with your sense of well-being and rediscover the spark of joy in your life.

Thank you for visiting our profile page. You are searching, not just for someone who can assist you with the issue you are struggling with, but someone you can connect with; someone who can truly understand you. The best way to find that person is to interview them on the phone. Credentials are only the starting place for a therapy relationship. Keep in mind you are choosing somebody with whom you can share pretty much everything about you; perhaps things you've never told any other person. Make sure you pick somebody you like & trust.

I truly believe “Shame dies when stories are told in safe places.” Whatever it is that you are dealing with at the current moment, be it anxiety, stress, burnout, imposter syndrome, or substance abuse, I know it comes with a story. It's ok not to be ok at times. Additionally, do you think you are a perfectionist? Do you have a hard time saying no? Have you been told you are too sensitive or that you care too much? Are you compulsively taking responsibility for the needs of others? If the answer to any of the above is YES, I want you to know that high functioning Anxiety is a thing and one way or another it will lead to burnout.

I believe therapy can be a powerful tool to overcome life's obstacles. My clients want to learn how to approach these obstacles and apply their new skills as problems arise; this allows my clients to feel confident in making positive, lasting changes in their lives. I often work with individuals, both adults and adolescents, who want to learn how to be more mindful in their lives and want help "getting out of their heads so to speak." My clients often want to re-establish their inner strength and learn how to better problem-solve in order to improve their lives.

I provide therapy services for adults. Some of the presenting themes I work with include feeling "stuck", anxiety and rumination, difficulty with achieving goals, overwhelm, disconnection from self or others, lack of motivation, loss of independence, and loss of joy. I work by providing support and psycho-education related to these experiences to reconnect you to hope and wellness. My goal is to provide you a safe place to process, a place to feel connected, and provide an opportunity for you to feel heard, seen, and understood.

Healing, recovery and growth depend on experiencing ourselves, others and life challenges in a new and healthier way. Change is an action. When we do things differently, our lives change. Therapy is a process of understanding the roots of our patterns and learning to respond to life in new and healthier ways. Awareness comes first, then action comes next. It is the action that allows us to take our lives in a direction that is more connected to our true selves. It takes tremendous courage to embark on that journey, but the reward of a fulfilling life and healthy, happy relationships are worth the time and effort invested.

Feeling overwhelmed by addiction and looking for a way forward? Seeking an alternative to rehab or unable to take leave from family, work and responsibilities? Overcoming addiction is hard, likely one of the hardest things you will go through, and you don't have to do it alone! I have served countless people, just like you, in finding a new path that doesn't depend on substances or behaviors that promise relief, but often bring guilt, regrets, dysfunctional moods, and damage the relationships of those we love the most. Freedom from addiction can be hard to imagine, I know firsthand. Seeking professional support is a great step!

My primary goal as a therapist is to foster a safe, supportive, accepting and also challenging space that encourages personal growth and healing for each of my clients. To achieve this, I use an integrative treatment approach, grounded in psychodynamic and interpersonal theories, that encourages mindful self-reflection on internal experiences, authentic expression of affect and a benign curiosity about our personal experiences. My experience and training have made me comfortable working with a range of mental health concerns and a diversity of cultural backgrounds.

While science is the backbone of my practice, I see psychotherapy as an art form and a sacred practice that draws upon one's deeply held values and cultural & indigenous resources. I would describe my style as creative, contemplative, and collaborative. My clients initially come to me for answers, but they eventually realize that the truth lies deep inside of them. My joy is watching my clients tapping into their inner wisdom and cultivating their skills to live meaningful lives.
