Allison Mitchell(She/Her/Hers)

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with fifteen years of experience providing group and individual psychotherapeutic services to adults, children, adolescents, and families. I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, substance use concerns, sexuality and identity, communication and relationships. I am a seasoned clinician with command of psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral approaches to therapy, with an emphasis in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Internal Family Systems.

I completed my Masters of Social Work with a concentration in Clinical Practice at The Catholic University of America. Prior to earning my graduate degree, I worked in the non-profit and government sectors, serving adults with severe mental health concerns and co-occurring substance use disorders, with an emphasis in mental health crisis intervention. My postgraduate work has been with children and families experiencing crisis, trauma, and family disruption. Most recently, I served the members of Kaiser Permanente as an adult psychotherapist and leader in the Adult Intensive Outpatient Program.

I pride myself on collaborating effectively individuals and their resources to develop a strong working relationship in order to produce best possible outcomes. I am a dynamic clinician who works with my clients to identify core needs and provide appropriate, skilled interventions with an emphasis in helping clients feel empowered to improve not only identified concerns, but overall well-being. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and culturally sensitive. All bodies, all identities, and all relationship styles are welcome.
