Professional statement

Alison Stone is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Flatiron, Manhattan specializing in the challenges of young adults and adults. Alison works primarily with clients in their 20s and 30s navigating anxiety, relationships and marital issues, family stressors, and various life transitions causing internal distress. She also particularly enjoys supporting adults as they become new parents and has completed the Postpartum Support International training on perinatal and postpartum mental health.

Alison’s approach is integrative and collaborative, utilizing principles from internal family systems, mindfulness practices, somatic intervention, and trauma-based modalities such as EMDR. She holds multiple advanced certifications and regularly attends trainings to further her skills and commitment to her patients.

Alison believes both in the importance of addressing the root cause of one's suffering, and providing concrete and tangible strategies for mitigating distress in the moment it occurs. She patiently guides each client toward a more gentle relationship with themselves and success in their personal and professional lives. She is currently offering telehealth services for those in New York.

Together, we will explore barriers keeping you feeling stuck so that you can lead a fulfilling, rewarding life.
