About Allison
Allison Wallace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia. She offers practical, straightforward support for people facing anxiety, stress, depression, grief, relationship strain, and other life challenges. Allison writes plainly and listens closely so people feel heard and understood from the first session.
She uses commonly practiced methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients identify patterns, learn coping skills, and set small, manageable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on real-life strategies that can be used between meetings rather than only talking about problems. Allison brings seven years of clinical experience to her work and draws on both social work and family therapy training. She spent time helping people with trauma, mood disorders including bipolar disorder, addictions, and attachment or personality-related concerns.
Her background includes work with people in the LGBT community and addressing parenting and intimacy-related issues. Her style is open-minded and non-judgmental. She aims to meet people where they are and avoid labeling.
Allison centers systemic ideas and strength-based practices while using skills from CBT, DBT, and solution-focused approaches to create a plan that fits each person's needs. Outside of clinical work she enjoys reading, exercise, travel, and spending time with friends and family.
She encourages people to reach out when life transitions feel overwhelming and to consider a therapeutic relationship that honors what makes them unique.
Using practical therapies online to manage symptoms
Allison uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on small experiments and practical exercises that reduce anxiety and improve mood over time.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT tools can be useful for people who get overwhelmed by strong emotions or who want concrete steps to manage intense reactions.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Allison works collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in about what is working and adjusts plans so strategies feel useful in daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for a more traditional session rhythm, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief reflections between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules while keeping a steady focus on skill practice and progress.
