Allie Dunston, MSW, LCSWA

I admire you for taking the first steps of exploring how to manage your mental health as it is as important as physical health for one’s quality of life. As a passionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate (LCSWA), I believe therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to explore challenges, identify strengths, and promote authenticity. 

  
I utilize evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and somatic-based therapies to support clients in achieving their therapeutic goals. Some common issues I work with are gender/sexual identity-related stress, relationship concerns, familial discord, depression, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation. My approach is person-centered and existentialist, as every individual is a unique product of their environment and genetics, and I tailor the therapeutic process to fit client needs. I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can non-judgementally explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors from a psychodynamic perspective. Together, we will develop strategies to foster resilience and improve well-being, but ultimately, you will be the one to promote lasting positive change. 
  
I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, LGBTQIA+, and seniors. I have also worked with individuals with neurodivergence and developmental disabilities. I am happy to connect for a free 15-minute consultation and explore whether we would be a good therapeutic match.
