About Alison

Alison Solomon is an LCSW with nearly three decades of clinical practice who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, ADHD, grief, trauma, and a wide range of life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings particular experience with issues related to identity and feeling different due to sexuality, physical abilities, or ethnicity, and she has worked with families of Holocaust survivors and with relationship and partner concerns. Her approach combines empathy with straightforward guidance to help clients navigate practical challenges and emotional patterns.

Clients can expect a therapist who is caring and nonjudgmental while also offering direct, honest feedback aimed at promoting insight and change. Alison draws on a mix of client-centered listening and evidence-informed techniques to help people learn more about themselves, improve communication, manage overwhelming feelings, and develop coping strategies.

She sees therapy as a collaborative process that walks alongside each person as they work through their difficulties and pursue clearer personal goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Alison uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive environment where the client's perspective guides the work; this approach focuses on empathy, active listening, and helping people clarify their goals and values. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills useful for anxiety, mood instability, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another tool she draws on when relationship patterns and attachment concerns are central, helping partners or individuals identify emotional responses and reshape interactions for greater connection.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alison will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as therapy progresses and inviting client feedback about what feels most helpful.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and locations. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care, try different modalities for skills practice or check-ins, and access therapy from distant or international locations with greater convenience.
