MFT

Allie (she/her/hers) is an individual and couples therapist that strives to provide a healing environment characterized by collaboration, non-judgement, and honest emotional expression. Building trust with your therapist is crucial to positive change, which is why Allie centers her clients’ experiences, interests, and goals in their work. Through a systemic lens, Allie works to understand all of her clients’ many identities and the way these intersect to shape how we experience the world. She seeks to provide an affirming practice that welcomes LGBTQIA+ and polyamorous/non-monogamous individuals, couples, and systems. Allie’s flexible and transparent approach to therapy balances the exploration of our vulnerability and emotional discomfort with the healing power of humor, joy, and pleasure!
