Begin With Intention

Choosing a therapist is a meaningful decision, and it matters that the approach feels aligned with who you are and what you’re seeking. A consultation is an opportunity for us to slow down, connect, and explore whether this work is the right fit for you or your child.

This practice is designed for teens and young adults who are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or caught in cycles of stress and burnout—and who are ready to try something different from traditional, talk therapy.

  • Are you wondering if working with Allison would be a good match for you or your child? Reach out to schedule a 15 minute phone consultation.

  • Prior to your first session, you will have the opportunity to meet with Allison to openly discuss challenges you may be facing along with your goals for therapy. This intentional meeting will help lay out the direction for you or your child’s therapeutic experience while you work with Allison.

  • Nature Based Walk and Talk Therapy along with traditional Talk Therapy are offered. Sessions will either take place on the grounds, private trails, or in Allison’s counseling office.

  • Needing to touch base in between sessions? Phone consultations can be scheduled upon request.

What to Expect from a Consultation

During our phone consultation we will

  • Talk about what’s bringing you here and what you’re seeking through your therapeutic journey

  • Explore whether a nature-based, body-centered approach feels supportive for you

  • Discuss how sessions work, including the outdoor setting and the therapeutic framework that Allison uses

  • Answer any questions you have about the process

There’s no pressure to commit. This conversation is about clarity, fit, and mutual alignment.

This Practice May Be a Good Fit If You:

  • Feel chronically stressed, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed

  • Sense that stress or past experiences are leaving you feeling stuck

  • Want to feel more grounded, emotionally regulated, and connected to yourself

  • Wanting to live more intentionally and in alignment with your values

  • Want your therapy to support both emotional healing and overall wellness

  • Are drawn to holistic, experiential, or nature-based therapeutic approaches

  • Value personal growth, self-awareness, and living more intentionally

  • Are looking for therapy that feels grounding, empowering, and leads you to deeper connection to yourself and your purpose

If you’re craving something deeper than coping or just getting by, something that feels grounded, intentional, and aligned—this work may be for you.

This work is not about “fixing” you or removing all of those challenging feelings or curveballs that life has thrown your way. It’s about having the willingness to show up, lean into vulnerability, and reconnect with yourself in more intentional and impactful ways.

You do not need to be outdoorsy or athletic. Sessions are always guided by your comfort level, physical ability, and personal goals.

This work may not be the best fit if you are looking for strictly office-based sessions or prefer a highly structured, talk-only approach. If you’re unsure, I’m happy to explore this with you during an initial consultation.

Your Questions, Answered

  • I work with teens and adults who are interested in a different approach to therapy. I specialize in expanding the therapeutic process beyond a therapy office and traditional talk therapy. I work with individuals who need help developing skills to process and work through stress, anxiety, life transitions, grief, and managing the overwhelm and weight of life’s challenges.
