About Allison
Allison Trevino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people handle stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, relationship strain, and money and financial issues. She works with those coping with trauma, mood concerns like depression and bipolar, sleep problems, and major life changes. Her tone is straightforward and supportive, aimed at people looking for practical help.
Allison practices in Kentucky and brings four years of experience to her work. She uses a mix of approaches so sessions focus on what a person needs right now. Conversations are collaborative and goal oriented, with room to talk through emotions and try different tools.
In sessions she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns that keep problems going, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people act in line with their values. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for processing traumatic memories when appropriate.
Her style is client-centered, meaning the person's goals guide the process. Allison aims for clear, practical steps clients can use between sessions. She pays attention to how life stress, caregiving strains, body image, and work pressures affect mood and choices.
People who reach out begin with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session. Allison emphasizes steady progress over time and works with each person to build skills for coping, communication, and healthier routines.
How Allison blends proven methods for online work
Allison incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that translate well to online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and money-related stress. ACT emphasizes clarifying values and taking committed action, which can support decisions about career, relationships, and financial choices.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. DBT skills training teaches concrete strategies for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness that people can practice between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Allison collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients and therapist decide what tools to try and when to shift focus.
