Well…your search will stop here after you work with Alison. Alison is a person-centered therapist who values her relationship with clients. She integrates different modalities to meet clients’ needs.

Kris O'Shee
Counselor/Therapist, MA in Counseling Psychology, Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I have a MFA in dance and a BA in Counseling Psychology. For many years I had a private practice in massage therapy where I also taught meditation and yoga. I have received trainings in somatic psychology, Jungian and Psychoanalytic psychotherapy, Gestalt psychotherapy, energy healing, and Mind-Body Medicine, with an emphasis on trauma and PTSD. I work with clients holistically. I want to help you become aware of all the parts of your personhood-- your mental life, as well as your physical and spiritual well being. Whatever problems you face in life; whatever obstacles might be preventing you from moving forward in work, in relationships; whatever suffering you are experiencing, I want to give you the tools to help you meet life's challenges and to gain a deeper understanding of yourself. As a therapist, I value the safety and confidentiality of the therapeutic relationship. I am committed to creating an environment where you can feel free to explore, to tell your story, to express your deepest feelings. And to have hope, hope that over time you will be able to make the kinds of changes you need and desire-- to truly become your most authentic self.

Sometimes this involves healing from the past, other times it means working towards visioning and creating the future, oftentimes both. Ready for real change and willing to do the work?
