About me

I am a Marine Corp Veteran (1990-1994) with more than 12 years of counseling experience, including Couples and Family Therapy. I have worked with Veterans, Military Sexual Trauma Victims, Individuals in the Criminal Justice , Individuals and Families exiting the Criminal Justice system, Individuals and Families experiencing Homelessness, Individuals experiencing Chronic Homelessness, Substance Abuse and Mental Health challenges, as well LGBTQ individuals and their families.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I am respectful, sensitive to others' journey, compassionate and understand that especially right now in our history, we are looking to one another for positive support and guidance at times. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels and promote inclusiveness. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, trauma informed care, and is strengths based. We will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek out a help in hopes of conceptualizing a fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Alison Johnson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Had a wonderful, insightful time with Alison. I learned quite a few new tools to use in the relationship with my significant other.

Alison was real easy to talk to and helped us get through some bumps in our relationship. She was an attentive listener and really helped to affirm the strength of our relationship. We highly recommend Allison.

Alison helped my husband and I a great deal. Really appreciate all she did for us. Even helped me individually in separate sessions.

To whom it may concern:
Allison is a top notch therapist. I love how she handles my situation and talks to me with respect. I love how she makes you feel like family/friend and it’s very comforting! In this world we need more Allison’s.
