About Allison

Allison Kemble is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings an acceptance-based, client-centered approach to counseling. With eight years of practice, she blends practical skill-building and compassionate support to help people manage grief, stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and complex life transitions.

Background and approach

Her background includes career counseling and medical social work, which informs a pragmatic style focused on immediate needs and realistic coping strategies. Allison’s experience spans assisting clients with housing and employment barriers, guiding families and patients through serious illnesses, and offering crisis and grief counseling during end-of-life care.

She frequently uses solution-focused techniques, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-informed practices to help clients clarify goals, build resilience, and develop useful tools for daily life. Her work emphasizes meeting clients where they are and tailoring interventions to individual circumstances.

Located in Missouri, Allison combines a listening-oriented presence with actionable strategies to address concerns such as parenting, caregiver stress, addiction, trauma, eating issues, anger, self-esteem, and career challenges. She encourages a collaborative pace so clients can engage at a level that fits their needs and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Allison commonly integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that create a more meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than struggling with them. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their own solutions and strengths.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Allison works with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current situation, adjusting strategies over time so treatment remains practical and relevant to real-life concerns such as grief, caregiving stress, chronic illness, ADHD, or career transitions.

Online therapy with Allison offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent care from anywhere in Missouri. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver structured interventions, teach coping tools, and support progress between sessions.
