I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and Texas. I have been practicing since 2015, working with couples and adult individuals. My passion is in helping people to heal and successfully navigate their relationships and life changes. As we go through life we often run into obstacles and gather baggage that keep us from reaching our true potential. The goal in therapy is to clear your path and reduce your load to free you to reach your goals and live in contented harmony and happiness.
Every individual is unique, you have a unique past, present and future. Your therapy should be customized to match you and your situation. I work with couples to regain intimacy and develop deeper, more loving relationships. Does past trauma have you trapped and is it holding you back? With training in trauma treatment, I can help you to move through your trauma dn into a brighter future. Having worked in addiction for 7 years I understand your struggles and how to overcome addictive behaviors while repairing your relationships.I am trained in working with depression and Anxiety.
I have successfully raised two children and maintained a loving 30-year marriage to my best friend. Prior to returning to school to become a therapist, worked in corporate America and was a successful entrepreneur. I understand and can help with the stress of having a career and trying to maintain a work/life balance. I have been trained in CBT, CPT, CBT for insomnia, Mindfulness and other modalities.

Therapy is a journey and as your therapist I occupy the role of being your journeyman. As a journeyman I walk alongside you and together we explore how you’ve experienced your life, and the stressors that may be bringing you into a therapeutic space like this. I want to learn your language, understand your experience from your perspective. This is all done in our safe collaborative environment that is free from judgment and bias. Ultimately i'd like an opportunity help you gain the kind of skills that can help you manage your stressors in healthy ways.

I stay up to date with the latest studies to provide the best care possible. I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy.
I am originally from New York, so I have had the opportunity to gain experience at reputable institutions such as New York Presbyterian Hospital and Montefiore Health System. I have also served as Director of the Behavior Health Department at Salinas Valley Health in Salinas, California.
I earned my BA in Psychology from Boston College and my Master of Social Work from Fordham University. I also earned my MBA in Healthcare Administration in 2019. Outside of work, I enjoy boxing, playing golf, yoga, lifting weights, and going to the beach!
The goal in psychotherapy is for you to become your own therapist. We would achieve this in a collaborative and strategic manner. There has always been a need to address our emotional well being but until recent times, this topic is more accepted than ever to discuss. Not only do I help people address their problems, but I also aim to help people be self-actualizing.

I enjoy creating a non-judgmental and affirming space for adults in their 20s and 30s to work through life with short-term or long-standing mental health and emotional distress. Feelings of anxiety and the need for isolation can be internal cues to request reconnection to what makes our lives meaningful. Ideally, enjoying the moment, knowing how to soothe overwhelming feelings, and engaging our sparkling personalities helps us feel alive. If you want to learn about your mental health needs, understand your patterns, and improve strategies to take better care of yourself, my approach will feel comfortable.
I use a gentle and caring approach to provide practical strategies and guiding questions. This helps you explore your pain and find insight and relief from distress. You can expect to explore past experiences, when appropriate, create goals for growth, be offered EMDR strategies to soothe discomfort and shift your mindset to connect with your strengths.

Welcome to my therapy practice! I am a psychologist and therapist with a unique approach that fosters growth, resilience, and self-compassion. I specialize in serving individuals who are eager to gain insight, set meaningful goals, and work towards achieving them using evidence-based strategies. My approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and a commitment to helping clients navigate life's challenges with resilience and clarity. I guide clients through their personal journeys with cultural humility and a deep understanding of the intricate interplay between mind and body. My therapeutic style may resonate with individuals seeking growth and transformation. It draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MCBT), and an array of techniques grounded in neuroscience and mind-body integration.
At the heart of my practice lies a profound respect for cultural diversity and an unwavering dedication to understanding each client's unique cultural context. This commitment is woven into my therapeutic framework, fostering an environment where clients feel heard, understood, and validated regardless of their background.
I embody a "learner's mind," continuously seeking the latest neuroscience and mind-body integration advancements to enhance my therapeutic offerings. Drawing from this knowledge, I integrate cutting-edge techniques that bridge the gap between psychological processes and physiological experiences, empowering clients to harness the innate connection between mind and body for increased self-awareness, equanimity, intentional living, and holistic healing.

Hello, I am Allyson!
Do you feel the heaviness of the world and want to quit? Do you beat yourself up when you do not accomplish your goals? Do you lack meaningful relationships? Do you struggle to find happiness? Are you confused about your purpose in life?
I empower individuals to live their best life and teach people to cope with their mental health challenges or life stressors. We can work collaboratively to identify destructive behaviors and negative thought patterns that are blocking you from living the life you truly desire. I utilize brain-based therapies which help heal the core wound and reduce symptoms.
Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationships, burnout, work-related stress, betrayal, or dealing with racial injustices we can find various therapy techniques that can be tailored to your personal needs. I am a trauma-informed, Brainspotting and EMDR-trained, and a culturally-sensitive therapist that cultivates an environment of compassion.
I want clients to feel safe, heard, and validated. No one deserves to feel hopeless, alone, or abused. Healing is not meant to be done alone. I am a firm believer that with just a little bit of hope and persistence, growth is possible! I am here to support your healing journey.

At 18 I was blessed to have a therapist who knew exactly how to talk to me and what to say, even if he was injecting humor into a humorless situation. I help my clients to let the trust and rapport build over the first few session, during which I start to pick the tools I'll use to stabilize and then engage in a more meaningful, psychodynamic way. I am a Rogerian and Existential therapist, which translates into unconditional positive regard for my clients, the action of highlighting any success, even if it's a small one, and building on pre-existing strengths. I am meeting my clients where they're at - wherever they are on life's journey, and my intention is to travel down that road along with them, opening each door, witnessing the pain, but always experiencing these challenges together so that the therapist is holding the space and creating a safe parameter within which symptoms, cognitive distortions, and trauma can be processed. I encourage clients to show up for their appointments as continuity is key to success when dealing with mental health issues.

I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for over 10 years. My Master’s in Social Work focused on Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality and how our different life experiences shape how we navigate our surroundings. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a veteran of the United States Armed Forces, some of my approaches to helping my clients identify their challenges and barriers to their identified problem starts with a person-centered and solution-focused approach to therapy.
I recognize a client's right to self-determination, and I want to empower clients I work with to collaboratively come up with their own obtainable short-term and or long-term plans and goals for the present and the future lives they want to live. Let’s further explore together how to use better the tools you’ve been working with and perhaps add additional tools to the toolbox or not.

I believe building an authentic human relationship rooted in non-judgement, caring attention, and respect for your unique goals is the key to effective therapy. For me, humor is an essential tool for connection and helps soften the difficult and sometimes painful work of healing. I aim for a balance between deep, transformative reflection and practical changes that can make everyday life feel lighter.
