Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Alison uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors - a practical approach often used for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. She also practices Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes a warm, empathetic relationship and supports clients in exploring their goals and values at their own pace. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another tool in her skill set; ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values, which can be helpful for stress, avoidance, and life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Alison collaborates with each person to determine which techniques and frameworks best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This lets treatment evolve as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy with Alison is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from wherever a client is located within Michigan, and they support consistent, ongoing care that fits into everyday life.
