About Alison
Alison Silcox is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenges of life changes. She also focuses on compassion fatigue and related concerns that can wear people down over time.
Alison uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused work to help people make practical changes. Sessions typically include talking through current problems, noticing unhelpful thinking patterns, and practicing new ways of coping. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and solution-focused tools to support that work.
Her approach also incorporates motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change and trauma-focused methods when past events affect present functioning. That mix can be helpful for common issues such as attachment worries, feelings of abandonment, and struggles with guilt or shame. Alison pays attention to how chronic health problems, caregiving demands, and financial stress shape daily life.
Clients can expect clear, task-oriented sessions that aim to build skills for managing anxiety and improving confidence. The focus is on practical strategies that can be used between sessions, and on small steps that add up over time. Alison practices in Colorado and conducts her work in English.
For someone who finds social situations or speaking up difficult, she offers methods that target anxious thoughts and avoidance. To begin, readers are asked to check the online therapy options and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment.
How Alison’s approaches work in online sessions
Alison often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors, which can reduce avoidance and ease social worry. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build awareness of thoughts and bodily reactions, helping someone tolerate anxious moments without immediately acting on them. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and reinforcing personal reasons to try new strategies.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alison will discuss your goals, what has helped or not helped before, and then recommend a mix of techniques. That plan can change as progress is made and as particular problems - like panic in social settings or avoidance of public speaking - come into view.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and reduce travel time. Many people find that practicing skills in everyday settings between sessions helps speed learning, and Alison frames sessions to support that kind of real-world practice.
