About Allyson
I specialize in treating Eating Disorders, Anxiety and OCD. I often work with trauma, relational concerns and BDD as well. I have extensive professional training as well as lived experience. Years ago, I found myself trapped in my own eating disorder and OCD- it didn't feel like things would ever get better. I eventually went through treatment and found full recovery. This sparked my passion in helping others find this same healing. My clients take comfort knowing they can come to me, judgement free, and talk with a therapist who has been there. Social justice is an integral part of my work. I believe systems of oppression shape our mental health in a myriad of ways. I find that a client's exploration of how these systems impact them results in greater self compassion and agency. I am multiracial, queer, and neurodivergent- I love working with folks of similar backgrounds.
