About Allison
Allison Wallace is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and mood concerns. Her approach is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping people take small steps that lead to real change.
Allison draws from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She meets people where they are and keeps conversations non-judgmental.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize skills and strategies people can use between meetings to handle strong feelings and everyday challenges. She has seven years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, addictions, bipolar disorder, self-esteem, and intimacy-related issues. Allison also has experience offering support to people who identify as LGBT.
Her background includes social work and family therapy studies that inform a systems-aware perspective. In sessions she leans toward strengthening what already works and building new tools where needed. That can mean practicing coping skills, setting small achievable goals, or testing ways to change unhelpful patterns.
The focus is on practical steps that fit a person's life and values. Outside of practice, she enjoys reading, exercising, travel, and time with friends and family. Her style is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on collaboration and realistic goals.

Using practical therapies in online sessions
Allison commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to improve mood and reduce anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help manage intense feelings and conflict.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Allison will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. She adjusts tools over time, checking in to see what helps and what should change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, skill practice, or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines.
