Alyson Pearson, LISW
Owner
I have been a therapist for 14 years, with a Master's Degree and license in Social Work. I have worked with people in many different situations, including work in a domestic violence shelter, Psychiatric Medical Institute for Children, residential treatment, a middle school, and have worked in outpatient therapy practices for 7 years with children and adults.
My specialty areas include trauma, PTSD, depression, and LGBTQIA+ issues (including transitions). I am trained and certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and have used it with great success for 10 years. It is an honor to see so much healing with EMDR, even when other types of therapy have not been successful. I also utilize ACT therapy, which is centered on allowing yourself to tolerate uncomfortable feelings, while living a life based on values. However, the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of therapy; more important than the modality of therapy.
My clients have described me as calm, laid back, down to earth, and empowering. I will not simply nod and take notes, judge you, or tell you exactly what you should do. If we are a good match, I'd love to walk with you on the journey of healing. When you're ready, call or email for a free phone consultation.
I accept Blue Cross, United Healthcare, Cigna, and Sisco/QCCH.
