About Allison

Allison Eddy follows a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and practical steps. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, parenting, and many related concerns. Her way of working is straightforward - she listens, helps set goals, and practices skills together in sessions.

Allison aims to make therapy feel useful and manageable for people juggling family life and everyday demands. Allison holds a Master of Arts and a Bachelor of Science from Oral Roberts University.

Background and approach

She is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, licensed in Oklahoma (OK LPC LPC04677). She has practiced for 16 years and brings that experience to each meeting. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people shift unhelpful thinking and try out new behaviors.

She also draws on trauma-focused methods for those who have experienced neglect, abuse, or other painful events. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when addressing closeness, communication, and emotional patterns. Allison has training in suicide prevention and in a forgiveness program that supports people working through hurt.

Her own family experience informs her empathy and understanding of caregiver stress and complex family challenges. She combines structured tools with a warm, listening style. Sessions move at a practical pace, focusing on coping skills, problem solving, and small changes that add up.

Parents and caregivers often appreciate the direct, compassionate tone she brings to stressful situations.

How Allison’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and respect. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what is said, and helps set goals that matter. This approach helps when someone needs steady support and clearer priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets patterns of thinking and behavior. It breaks problems into manageable steps, teaches practical coping skills, and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impact of painful events by working through triggers, building safety, and teaching grounding skills. It aims to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning after trauma.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about goals, try methods that fit the person’s needs, and adjust over time. That way the plan matches personal preferences and real-life demands.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity when life is unpredictable. Licensed professionals can use these options to provide regular support and practical skills work without requiring travel.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
