About
Hello! My name is Alison Nyman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida. I obtained my Masters in Social Work with a clinical focus at New York University in 2012, and I currently have over 7 years of experience with various types of counseling. I have a passion for helping others through listening and problem solving and becoming a Psychotherapist seemed like a natural career path. I can genuinely say I love the work I do and the experiences I have had along the way. I have had the privilege of working with adults of all ages throughout my career and have worked as a Therapist at a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center, a support coach and Therapist for young adults with special needs, and currently a private Therapist for individuals, families, and groups facing all types of issues. My areas of specialty include: Adjustment and Life transitions, Autism, Special Needs, Anxiety, Depression, Mood Disorders, Stress Management, Coping Skills, Conflict resolution, and Relationship Issues, as well as Family and Parenting Dynamics. I have clinical experience with Applied Behavioral Analysis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Addiction Counseling, Motivational Interviewing, Behavior Modification Therapy, Mindfulness Practices, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. I would definitely call my overall style "eclectic".
I feel lucky to have an ability to connect with others, listen, and show genuine compassion and understanding. I work with all ages, individuals, families, and couples. I always work from a person-centered perspective, where I emphasize empathy, personal empowerment, and setting goals and treatments based on each individual's needs in a safe and judgment free space. There is no one size fits all when it comes to counseling. The Find A Therapist platform is such an exciting advancement in the counseling field as we now have the accessibility to connect and communicate more easily than ever. Anyone can benefit from counseling, and I encourage my Clients to obtain and utilize coping skills and tools to manage everything from everyday stressors to chronic mental health issues. Regardless of your personal objectives, I will support you along the way to help you attain your goals while making sure you feel safe, heard, and understood.
I admire anyone who is open to counseling and therapy as it requires courage to ask for help and to make a change. I am here to listen and support you on your journey and look forward to hearing from you.
