“Alison, I wanted you to know how deeply grateful I am for all the ways you’ve contributed to my personal growth. Thank you for being non-shaming, valuing a holistic approach, and teaching me how to re-frame things. Your words of affirmation have also been timely and restorative. You are incredibly gifted in your work and I’ve given away all your cards to friends and health professionals who plan to pass your name along to others.”

MY THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

Marriage Counseling Madison

First and foremost, my approach is non-judgmental and non-shaming.

My personality is very caring, interested, relaxed, and down to earth and I really do want to hear about what is weighing on you. So, my office is your therapy space and provides a very safe environment to discuss difficult topics of any kind.

 

Therapy isn’t always heavy. 

There can be levity. In fact, I encourage it. Without dismissing the gravity or importance of something, this makes the therapeutic work enjoyable and memorable for lasting impact!

Now, do you know what you are looking for?

Advice? Direction? Simply need someone to listen? You might know exactly what you want to accomplish and want support getting there, or you may need help exploring and identifying what’s wrong and what’s next for you in life.

 

Either way, I am your enthused co-pilot!

 

Some sessions will bring immediate change, like feelings of relief or confidence. you’ll love that the majority of the tools and skill-building we discuss are simple and not time-intensive, therefore, you can easily sustain your change outside of our time together.

WHY YOU SHOULD ENGAGE IN THERAPY OR COACHING

Marriage Counseling Madison

Remember, engaging in therapy is a phenomenal expression of self-care and HIGHLY ENCOURAGED in order to be the very best version of yourself (e.g. the best spouse, employee, parent, etc).  I can’t stress enough, SELF-CARE IS NOT SELFISH.

 

And, only you can do it for yourself… which is good news! You aren’t reliant on someone or something else to create the best version of yourself!

 

Therapy is beneficial regardless of the magnitude of your concerns and whether or not you stay in a relationship.

 

And, making the appointment is an easy first step!

 

Therapy makes your growth, healing, and change processes easier, more focused, and much more efficient than doing it alone.

6 REASONS TO CHOOSE AK COUNSELING

Marriage Counseling Madison

Accessible. My clients really value that I am easily accessible via phone, text, and email in between our sessions because they get prompt support when a significant challenge arises.

Immediate. Appointments are typically available within two weeks, and crisis appointments are usually accommodated within 24-48 hours.

Digital. If proximity or time constraints make in-person visits a challenge we can meet via Zoom (HIPAA compliant video conferencing).

Flexible. Sessions are 60, 75, or 90 minutes (longer by request). If we hit a great stride near the end of our scheduled time and both our schedules allow, we can continue our appointment to maximize your progress.

Private. My cozy therapy room is located in a low-profile, quiet building on the near west side of Madison (adjacent to Hilldale Mall). Your personal information and the content of our sessions are kept confidential. My practice is not subject to annual state audits, as larger clinics are, where client files are reviewed by state personnel.

Solution-Focused. Many of my clients are looking for input, direction, and solutions. My approach to therapy is practical and expedites your change process.

Comfort. Your comfort is a priority and I will do my best to provide it. Please ask for what may help you! 

Fun & Effective. The testimonials say it all.

Get support from AK Counseling, so you aren’t alone in your efforts to change, heal, or make hard decisions. Create a better life for yourself, starting now. 

Lastly, I look forward to hearing from you!
