Allison Ames

Allison Ames is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker and therapist who understands the challenges individuals face when emotions feel overwhelming and thoughts spiral into worry about the past and future. Many adults and teens may find themselves struggling with anxiety, stress, and ADHD, losing sight of the balanced moments that provide steadiness in life. In her therapy sessions, Allison offers a steady and calming approach utilizing a strengths-based, non-judgmental, empathetic, and empowering methodology that integrates motivational interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She believes that each person is capable, resilient, and whole, and sometimes, they simply need a little guidance to reconnect with that wise inner voice that knows the right path forward. With experience in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship struggles, trauma, and major life changes, Allison is dedicated to providing the same level of high-quality care virtually through teletherapy as she does in-person. Her support extends to those dealing with grief and loss, exploring and embracing their sexuality and gender identity, and adapting to the inevitable changes that life presents. Allison is committed to facilitating a therapeutic journey that fosters growth and healing for all her clients.
