Allen offers clients evidence-based approaches from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Co-Active Coaching, and other robust-sounding acronyms. What really matters is that you discover the techniques and perspectives that resonate with you.

Being a grown adult but a kid at heart, Allen brings an irreverent, refreshing presence to pre-teen, teen, family, and adult clients alike. Life experiences he integrates with his client work include growing up with LGBTQ+ and immigrant PoC identities, navigating multiple career changes, and attempting to be a good parent (while maintaining relative sanity).
