- LMHC
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida. I earned my Master's Degree at Wake Forest University in 2016 and have been practicing ever since. I specialize in depression, anxiety, adapting to life changes, relationship/marriage counseling, family/parenting issues and kids/teens. I also help people come past traumas including childhood abuse, sexual abuse, death/loss, divorce and many other difficult life circumstances. I employ an empathetic and respectful approach to counseling that emphasizes your strengths and your goals for change.
When you work with me, I want you to feel seen, heard and understood. Using a compassionate, Cognitive Behavioral approach, I will help you identify what areas of life are causing you the most distress, narrow down your therapy goals, build a plan that fits your personality and needs and regularly assess the progress of your therapy to ensure the quality of your treatment.
It can be scary to open up to a stranger. Know that, like you, I have made mistakes in life and have weaknesses and struggles. None of us are perfect! I am not here to judge you or make you feel bad. I am here to listen, understand and empower you to live the life you have been striving to live!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Allison Lopez shows genuine interest in my concerns. She offers reasonable and practical advice and helps me create steps or action plans that allow my inevitable circumstances to become more manageable.
Allison has been a game changer so far. Since our first session I’ve already learned some helpful tools and have been feeling much better having someone to share what’s going on with!
I have only had a few sessions with Allison but she has been extremely helpful! She has listened to me without judgment and has provided resources to help me with the things I have been feeling. She has also helped to validate some of the concerns I have had with issues I have faced in my life. I have really enjoyed speaking with her and do feel like based on the things I have going on I was paired with the perfect person!
Allison is a wonderful counselor. She helped me to regain my lost confidence and get back on track with life. At every session, I felt like I was cared for and being helped. Through multiple sessions and many conversations, she was able to he.p me dig and find the root issues of my problems. I am very grateful for the couple of months that I spent with her.
Allison is great. She listens attentively and is very helpful with solutions.
