Hi, I'm Alison — a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with nearly twenty years of experience sitting with people in their hardest moments.

I founded Brave Counseling & Consulting on a single conviction: that the capacity to heal has always been inside you. My work is trauma-informed, clinically grounded, and rooted in the belief that healing is not only possible — it is your birthright.

I created Brave Enough to Heal because for years I wished I could give my clients something to hold onto in between our sessions. Something warm. Something clinically sound. Something that says: you are not alone in this, and you are not broken.

This workbook is that companion. 134 pages built on the same three-phase framework used in professional trauma treatment — Stabilization, Processing, and Integration — and grounded in nearly two decades of clinical experience.

I'm so glad you're here. You are braver than you know.
