Allison Peck, LCSW

Allison Peck is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York who supports adults and couples as they navigate life transitions, relationships, parenting, and career challenges. She blends practical education with skills training to help clients reduce distress and cultivate greater well-being, emphasizing the mind-body connection and an integrative approach that draws on neuroscience, attachment theory, and mindfulness.

Her background includes a Master of Arts in General Psychology from The New School with a focus on neuroscience and attachment theory, and a Master of Social Work from New York University. Allison combines psychodynamic insight with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies and dialectical behavioral tools to promote response flexibility and self-compassion. She also uses communication skills training and organizational psychology concepts when relevant to work and family life.

Clients note appreciation for her global business experience and a mindfulness journey that spans three decades, and she aims to empower adults through education, skills development, and thoughtful conversation. Allison works with mood disorders, trauma, adjustment issues, relationship concerns, parenting and blended family dynamics, career transitions, and aging-related challenges. For information, she is generally available for weekly talk therapy sessions and not for ongoing texting support.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Allison integrates several proven approaches to support clients in online therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifies values and committed action to build a meaningful life; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional responses, offering insight and new strategies for improving intimacy and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop practical skills to manage mood, anxiety, and everyday challenges.

Finding the right fit is part of the process, and Allison works collaboratively with each person to tailor therapeutic approaches to their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws from different tools and adjusts strategies as therapy progresses so clients gain clarity and useful skills.

Online therapy with Allison is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, fit sessions into work and family life, and access support from licensed professionals and therapists in ways that match individual routines and comfort levels.
