PROFESSIONAL
Allison is very passionate about mental wellness across the life continuum. Allison has extensive experience providing services from adolescence all the way to end-of-life. She has worked in residential care, transitional programming, and outpatient care and has cared for people who struggle with severe and persistent mental illness. She started working with individuals struggling with substance use disorders and addiction prior to completing her master’s degree as a therapist. Allison loves working with individuals at a transitional level of care and supporting them in increasing their autonomy in a healthy and safe way. She supports this process through relationship-based therapy, motivational interviewing, acceptance therapy, and commitment therapy. Allison sees that the most important part of her role as a therapist is the relationship. Through a combination of a relationship-based approach and current therapeutic modalities, Allison is constantly challenging herself and looking at what she can do to help her clients feel less like they are in a program and more like they have independence and choices in their lives, and through that process, creating a baseline of autonomy and independence.
PERSONAL
Allison moved to Utah to attend high school. Shortly after, she moved to the Bay Area but returned quickly for the 2002 Olympics and has stayed in Utah ever since. When Allison is not working, you will find her curled up with a good book, researching new recipes, or trying out a new restaurant with her friends. She has three beautiful children who all like to keep her on her toes. Allison and her family are big University of Utah football fans and cheer for their favorite team during the season. In the summer, Allison can be found camping near a river or being anywhere near water as it soothes her soul.
HOPE, HEALTH & HEALING
Allison believes that relationships are essential in creating a safe environment to explore and define what those three terms mean for each individual.
