Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
I am a neurodivergent-affirming and informed therapist with a history of 15 years supporting children with different learning needs and abilities. For neurodivergent children, the challenges of navigating the world can be endless, impacting various aspects of their development and well-being and extremely taxing on their caregivers. My therapeutic approach offers tailored modalities to address their neurodivergent needs by focusing on sensory regulation and psychoeducation to aide in their holistic development. By nurturing a supportive environment and targeting sensory processing from the ground up, therapy with me empowers neurodivergent children and their caregivers to thrive, build resilience, and reach their full potential.
