Online and remote therapy options
Dr. Allen offers remote sessions by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences. Remote work allows sessions to focus on relationship patterns, emotional regulation, and problem solving while meeting clients where they are.
She frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to build new coping skills. That approach is practical and collaborative, with the clinician and client working together to set goals, try experiments between sessions, and track progress over time.
Attachment-Based perspectives and elements of the Gottman Method are integrated when addressing couple dynamics and intimacy-related concerns. These approaches foreground patterns of connection and communication, and they are a fit for people interested in exploring how early relational experiences and current interaction styles shape present-day relationships.
