BLOOMING MINDS COUNSELING, PLLC
Alison Bellows, M.Ed, LCMHCA, NCC
Counseling Approach
I use an integrative approach to counseling taking into account the emotional, physical, biological, psychological, environmental and social factors of an individual. Just like every individual and situation is unique, I believe there is no one size fits all approach to counseling. My practice is grounded in evidenced based theory, keeping up to date with the latest research and studies, while also taking into account the unique perspective and experiences of the client.
Common theories I utilize in therapy include: Person-Centered Therapy, Trauma Informed Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Attachment Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Somatic Therapy.
Common presenting issues of client's I work with in therapy include: anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues, attachment, relationship issues, infidelity, communication, self-esteem, life transitions, perfectionism, people pleasing, codependency, interpersonal conflict, and self-exploration.
