Hi, I'm Allison Becker
I'm glad you're here
Adolescence and young adulthood are challenging times, full of growth and transition for individuals and families. I love supporting adolescents and emerging adults as they explore their identities and light their paths into adulthood. I am skilled at working with families through these transitional times, and also enjoy supporting couples in achieving healthy communication and partnership. My clinical experience runs the gamut from in-home work with court mandated youth, residential work with adolescent girls, and community-based outpatient therapy with high school students and kids in foster care.
​
With more than two decades of work supporting LGBTQ+ youth, I particularly enjoy helping young people and their families navigate the coming out and gender transition processes. I also love working with families to find and realize common goals and improve functioning in the system as a whole.
​
I can help you and your family achieve your goals, both individually and together. Whether struggling with low self-esteem, identity development, relationship difficulties, overcoming traumatic experiences and memories, shame, anxiety and depression, or anything else that is preventing you from meeting your full potential, let me walk beside you.
