More about Allyson
- 4 years' experience

- LCPC
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor of 4 years and provide services for children, adolescents, and adults with experience in all levels of care. I specialize in mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and life transitions or stressors. I am personally, professionally, and academically trained to provide Faith based counseling.
My approach is eclectic pulling from Psychodynamic, Solution Focused, DBT, CBT, and Rogerian styles to tailor treatment specifically to the individual. I understand that reaching out for help is a huge step. My goal is to foster a healthy and safe environment to foster healing and change. I obtained my MA from Wheaton College and my BS from the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign.
Aside from counseling, I enjoy rock climbing, playing games with friends, spending time with my cat, and going for long walks. I am proud to identify as Asexual.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
