With 10+ years of experience, I work with clients with a variety of mental health needs. I work with children as young as 3 in play-based therapy, addressing anxiety, behavioral issues, parenting needs and familial transitions. I also work with couples exploring pre-marital counseling, marriage counseling, separation/divorce or co-parenting. I work with teens struggling with anxiety or depression as they navigate the realms of social media and pressures of GenZ. I also see many adult clients 1:1 who just need extra support in this season of life: whether from work stressors or family conflict or just wanting better mental wellness.
Refinery Counseling offers boutique mental health counseling services. Our counselors have varying expertise that allow us to serve many types of clients with excellence. From trauma to anxiety to life transitions, we are here to help you. Ally is a licensed professional counselor, board approved supervisor and certified autism specialist.
My heart for counseling is that you would feel supported, heard, and valued. Whether you are a college student struggling with transition, a parent navigating the stress and pressures of parenthood, an adult experiencing anxiety or depression, or if you are seeking help for your child/teen, I want your counseling experience to be comfortable and effective.
