More about Alison

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMSW

Welcome, I'm really glad you're here! My name is Alison and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in mental health throughout a variety of settings with adult clients. For my individual practice, I approach therapy as a collaboration between myself and the individual. Without judgement, I strive to create a space for honest dialogue meant to support individuals in understanding the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behavior. My intention as a therapist is to help you feel comfortable, heard, validated, and empowered. I aim to support you in identifying personal goals and taking manageable steps towards achievement. I offer conversation that is compassionate and authentic with a side of humor. It can be hard out there- taking the step to seek out support takes courage. I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Allison is a GIFT. She is consistent, wise, friendly, thoughtful, and affirming. She gives me all the space and time I need to work through my issues and responds with nothing but wise encouragement. I've had a lot of bad-to-meh experiences with counselors, but finally—FINALLY—feel like I'm getting the help I need with Allison.

Alison is personable and professional. She understands my concerns and offers a great balance of suggestions with encouragement for me to think through things myself. I always look forward to my sessions with Alison. I am very happy with Alison and the flexibility of Better Help.

Reviewed December 2019

Alison is a genuine person and is here to help. I was nervous about how a session would go and I wasn't sure how comfortable I would be talking to a stranger about my personal life. After a few sessions though, I can say that I found it extremely easy to open up and talk about my issues and I am on the way to finding solutions.

Reviewed August 2019

Alison is a friendly, easygoing, and understanding therapist. She has listened patiently to my issues and taken the time to make sense out of them in a skillful and logical manner, whilst always being gentle. She evidently knows what she is talking about and has a knack of finding the perspective that I am missing. I am grateful to have been matched with her!

Reviewed June 2019

I would highly recommend Alison Mace. I really feel like she understands exactly what my concerns are and what I would like to work on. She helps me understand things from a perspective that I don’t always see things, which is extremely helpful. She provides me with the tools, information and knowledge that I need.
