Alison Wheatley

I am committed to supporting you through your journey toward hope and healing. I work from a trauma-informed perspective, understanding that life experiences shape and impact who we are and how we function immensely. Over time and through these various experiences, many of us develop maladaptive coping strategies and unhelpful thinking patterns, and sometimes lose sight of our inherent self-worth and resilience. Each of us has the ability to adjust thinking patterns and destructive behaviors, and heal from emotional wounds. It’s never too late to have a fresh start in finding meaning and connection, and creating a life worth living. I specialize in working with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, life changes/decision making, relationship issues, or anything else that is causing distress and difficulty in your life. I work with adolescents and adults ages 12+. I use a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, EMDR, and mindfulness approaches, depending on the needs of each individual. I strongly believe in the inherent strength, resilience, and worth each person holds. I genuinely care for the individuals I work with, and can be relied on to show warmth, empathy, and understanding. It is important to me that my clients feel cared for and respected. My hope is that you, too, will come to recognize your strength and worth with my support.
