Allen Turnbough
Feeling overwhelmed by day-to-day life is something many people experience, and counseling can provide a supportive space to work through those challenges. My goal is to offer a nonjudgmental, empathetic environment where we can identify your goals, work toward them together, and regularly evaluate your progress. I especially enjoy working with individuals living with chronic illnesses, as well as partners, family members, and caregivers who may also need support but often hesitate to ask for help. I also work with people who have been falsely accused and may be navigating stress, uncertainty, isolation, or difficult emotions that can feel overwhelming to manage alone.
Sometimes what needs to be discussed is hidden in what is not said or in body language.
First session
In our first session, we will talk about what brings you to counseling, what you hope to gain from the process, and any concerns or questions you may have. I will also gather relevant background information so we can begin creating a plan that feels realistic, collaborative, and tailored to your needs.
Strengths
I bring a calm, compassionate, and collaborative approach to each session, with a focus on helping clients feel heard, respected, and supported. I strive to meet each person where they are while helping them build insight, identify strengths, and take practical steps toward meaningful change.
Ideal clients
I’m Allen. Hello, and nice to meet you. I do hope you give yourself credit for taking this first step to feeling better. The prospect of counseling can be daunting and scary, yet you are here searching for support. I cannot and will not promise a certain outcome, but I will be there with you as you take the needed steps to improve your life. I strive to develop an open and welcoming environment.

Treatment methods
Humanistic
Although I incorporate various treatment methods I rely heavily on Humanistic theory especially person-centered approach. Each individual has their own capacity and power to improve and it is my purpose to assist in that journey. I have applied this approach in my own life with the support of a counselor and have found that clients have more capacity for change than they realize.
