About Allison

Allison Burrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy. She helps people address anger, relationship and intimacy struggles, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns. Allison also supports clients managing ADHD, bipolar symptoms, sleep problems, career stress, and life transitions.

She brings three years of professional experience and has worked with people who have intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism. Sessions emphasize honest conversation and clear goals. Allison aims to create a calm space where feelings and thoughts can be talked through without judgment.

Her approach uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help change unhelpful thinking and develop new coping habits. She also draws on existential and Jungian ideas to look at meaning, identity, and personal patterns. Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change and want to find their own momentum.

Allison invites clients to set practical steps between sessions. She focuses on small, measurable changes that fit daily life. The work is collaborative - goals and pacing are decided together based on what each person needs.

Sessions are offered in English and German. People interested in beginning can follow the Start Therapy process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

How Allison’s approaches translate to online therapy

Allison commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing different responses; it can help with anger, anxiety, sleep, and mood regulation. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can be helpful for stress, anger, and ADHD symptoms.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Allison works with each person to figure out which methods match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients shape the pace and focus of the work together with the therapist.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone continue work while traveling or balance sessions around work and family routines. Ask about available session options when you start the matching process to find what will work best for your schedule and needs.
