Hey there! My name is Allison (she/her), I am a traveling virtual therapist with availability September 2025! I am thrilled that I can combine my passion for helping others improve their mental health while living my dream of traveling the USA in my camper van. This journey of life can become turbulent without notice, and having someone to provide support can make all the difference. Together we will work to develop strategies that support personal authenticity that is both meaningful and manageable. I would be honored to join and support you in your mental health journey and aid in navigating the many twists that life has in store! I strongly believe in experiencing life to the fullest of our capabilities. My specialties are in trauma and adjustment issues, anxiety and depression, and interpersonal issues. Using the client centered model we will explore your perspective and goals. I work with adults, am LGBTQIA+ allied, and have a strong emphasis of intersectionality in my work. I am enthusiastic and passionate about empowering my clients to take hold of their mental health journey, recognize their strengths, express their emotions and maintain positive habits in their own safe space.
Psychotherapy is a highly individualized practice that can assist with a broad set of life problems. Each session carries the potential for change and growth. In my practice I strive to create deeply personal and meaningful experiences. I believe we best accomplish this by developing a mutual understanding of the concerns that have brought you to therapy, and then embarking on a collaborative process towards addressing your goals for treatment. I enjoy and welcome working with people from diverse backgrounds on a wide range of issues. I am a clinical associate faculty and an advanced candidate at the Chicago Center for Psychoanalysis. I earned my masters degree at the University of Chicago and worked for over 10 years as a community social worker in the psychiatry department at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
We pride ourselves on being a value-based practice. We honor a reciprocal relationship with our surrounding communities, and therefore, seek to establish long-lasting connections with residents and professionals who become our stakeholders, either as clients or referral sources. Our therapeutic environment is one that combines comfort with professionalism. We believe the therapy process is unique for each person, yet always requires people to feel safe and supported along their journey. The Perspectives Therapy Services clinic in Lansing, Michigan is located at 1701 Lake Lansing Road in Suite 120. We are near the Lansing Surgery Center and Court One. The professional, yet welcoming environment of this clinic offers 14 therapy spaces. Individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy are all types of counseling that are offered at the Lansing PTS clinic.
I am a graduate of the University of Michigan. With over 13 years of experience and a specialty in helping clients with PTSD, anxiety, depression and those who have survived catastrophic car accidents, I provide an empowering, individualized approach for each of my clients. I love to help my clients navigate meaningful changes in their lives and believe every day is an opportunity for personal growth. I enjoy working with diverse clients from a wide variety of backgrounds and am dedicated to strength-based and person-centered therapy in a safe and supportive environment. I am regularly asking for feedback from my patients. I use this feedback to improve treatment methods, guide therapist training and improve overall customer satisfaction. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking for friends and family, enjoying nature while hiking, traveling to discover new parts of the world and officiating wedding ceremonies.
I work with teens and college students to help them deal with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns. I also help people who are stressed out and need some clarity about big decisions such as whether to change majors. I use Solution Focused Therapy which means I'll help you get a clear idea of what you want things to look like in the immediate future and then help you use your current strengths and past successes to make it happen. I'll help you get ideas for small but do-able changes to start with, and these small changes add up to big change.
Let’s create a relationship that supports you to feel more freedom and power. We’ll develop mindfulness practices-tailored to your abilities & interests- to help you better manage stress, anxiety and depression.
In my experience working with people from different countries, I’ve seen the importance of providing a safe space where you can be yourself, feel understood and accepted regardless of your culture, religion, race, gender identity, sexual preference, or background. A good therapeutic relationship and a common comprehension of what led you to start therapy, will allow us to guide the therapy process, integrate techniques from different therapies, and give you a better grasp of how to achieve your goals. I’m Bilingual in English and Spanish, I have a master’s degree in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and an Advanced Certification in Schema Therapy. I draw from an integrative psychotherapy orientation, that allows the integration of other evidence-based therapies/techniques.
Welcome to my practice listing. Psychology and psychotherapy can help you when you are in distress and can help you heal AND to create the life that you want. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness psychotherapies, family systems therapy, existential psychotherapy, among other models to find tools and sustained abilities to grow.
Starting therapy is a huge step towards bettering yourself, and taking that leap of faith to begin this journey is the beginning stage of healing. I would be extremely privileged and feel so honored to walk alongside you during this journey. I will do my best to provide you with the skills and strategies that you are looking for in order to better your well-being. I take into account everyone’s individual backgrounds in order to develop the most effective treatment for you, and to allow you to feel safe and heard. I am a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor, and received my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Grand Valley State University, and my Master’s degree in Counseling Education with an emphasis in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Michigan University. In the past I have worked with clients ages 7 and up, who are struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other challenges. I believe that therapy can be a transformative experience; something that allows people to live their authentic and best lives, and helps us to develop coping skills to handle life’s toughest challenges. I practice therapy from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapeutic (CBT) approach. I strive to provide an empathetic environment for those who step into my office, and to provide a safe space where you can expect to feel heard and comfortable while working with me. I am always striving to learn more, so that I can best treat those who I work with!
I offer secure online therapy throughout Michigan. Adjusting to college or young adulthood can feel overwhelming. You might be anxious, out of place, or unsure of who you are becoming. Everything is changing, and it can feel like you’re expected to figure it all out on your own. You’re not alone in this. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm. While I specialize in working with adult and teen women, I welcome individuals of all ages who are looking for support and clarity. My approach combines mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and practical tools to help you better understand what you’re experiencing and begin to feel more steady. I offer a supportive, collaborative space where you can slow down, reflect, and feel truly heard. If you choose to work with me, we will move through challenges together—whether that involves relationships, grief, loneliness, trauma, or the anxiety and depression that often come with them. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out.

I am the founder and director of the Mother Wound Project (@motherwoundproject). I received my MSW from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor and have 9 years of experience helping individuals, parent-child pairs, families, and couples successfully navigate the mother wound, the father wound, family conflict, parenting after trauma, no contact/estrangement, and reconciliation. I also support those who are struggling with body image and eating disorder conditions that impact daily life. My approach as a therapist is both compassionate and person-centered. I believe every family is capable of healing and that healing the family is how we will ultimately heal the world.
I don’t look like what I have been through, and you don’t have to, either. There are times in our lives when we can’t see past our grief, trauma, passion, or desires. There is no shame in talking things out with a professional trained to help. We all walk a different path, but talking to someone can sometimes help us see the forest, not just the trees. My goal is to assist you in establishing healthy boundaries across various areas of your life, enhancing self-awareness, and embracing uncomfortable emotions like guilt and shame. I promote self-love and compassion, improve communication skills, and encourage you to face your fears and uncertainties.
