About Alyson Garvey

I have worked in social services for the past 25 years in long-term care, hospice care and with the elderly and disabled. This has offered me a broad range of experience in counseling those in life-changing situations and offered multiple clients the ability to understand and adapt to these changes. My therapy goals are to help clients who are dealing with anxiety and depression. I am especially adept at working with caregivers who are fatigued from caring for others with chronic illnesses or disabilities. This work may lead to further exploration of things such as trauma and PTSD. The main focus is to use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) but is not limited to other interventions. Everyone’s goals in therapy will be different and the main purpose of a counselor is to offer non-judgmental feedback while at the same time encouraging positive emotional and social outcomes. For some, this may take several months depending on the person and the situation.
