Background and approach

Alison uses a few different approaches to match the person in front of her. These include Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client’s lead, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy for improving connection in close relationships. She adapts methods to fit each person’s needs.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Alison draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow what each person brings to the room, helping them feel heard and guiding the work at their pace. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal strategies that help with anxiety and strong feelings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used when relationship patterns and emotional bonds are the focus, helping people identify and shift interaction patterns that cause pain.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Alison will talk with each person about goals, what has or hasn’t worked before, and personal preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can fit short check-ins, homework discussion, or quick coping reminders between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy day or to connect from different locations.
