About Allison

Allison Trevino is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with four years of clinical experience. She practices from Kentucky and focuses on stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and problems with intimacy and sleep. She also addresses self-esteem, career strain, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

Allison uses straightforward, practical approaches. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and client-centered methods. Sessions tend to focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, trying concrete alternatives, and building skills that fit day-to-day life.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work with a clinical focus. As an LCSW she has worked with people facing addiction, trauma, and chronic stress. She integrates different methods rather than relying on a single technique, and she emphasizes collaboration when deciding what to try next.

In a session Allison will help identify patterns that make problems worse. She uses brief exercises, behavioral experiments, and practical coping strategies. She also offers space to process difficult memories when that becomes relevant.

People who choose her often want direct, structured help for specific problems. Before booking, confirm the current session options and any format details you need to plan logistics.

How Allison uses structured approaches in online sessions

Allison commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what works. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts and values-based action so people can move toward goals even when emotions are strong.

She also brings elements of client-centered work, which means listening closely and adapting the pace to the person's needs. Choosing an approach is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on goals and what feels workable in daily life.

Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, as format details are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, or caregiving commitments. Some session options require less internet bandwidth or can be shorter check-ins when that helps keep progress moving. Talk with Allison about scheduling and session length so arrangements fit into regular routines while keeping therapy practical and focused.
