Alison Peterson is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Oklahoma. She has six years of experience and focuses much of her work around trauma, stress, and anxiety. Alison helps people who are facing grief and loss and those dealing with LGBTQ-related concerns.

Background and approach
Her background includes work with many kinds of abuse and trauma - domestic violence, sexual assault, religious trauma, and financial abuse. She also supports people coping with illness or injury, and those wrestling with issues like codependency and attachment concerns. Alison draws on methods that focus on thoughts, emotions, and the patterns that keep people stuck.
She uses tools to calm intense feelings and to practice new ways of responding. Over time she helps clients build skills to handle panic, obsessive thoughts, and persistent worry. Conversations also cover life purpose, communication problems, and complex grief such as hospice and end-of-life concerns.
She has experience working with people from different ethnic and religious backgrounds and adapts sessions to fit each person’s needs. Taking the first step can feel hard. Alison meets people where they are and helps them set small, clear goals for change.

How Alison’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps them name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and manage panic. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation and interpersonal skills to handle intense feelings and improve communication.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Alison will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and what feels comfortable. She combines listening with clear suggestions and adapts techniques so they match the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions can fit into busy lives. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without traveling. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These formats give flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or limited time, while keeping the therapeutic focus on building skills and processing difficult experiences.
