About Holly
Holly Allen is a licensed professional counselor with nine years of clinical experience in Wyoming. She focuses on practical support for people facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, stress, and issues around intimacy. Her approach aims to make therapy straightforward and usable for daily life.
She draws on client-centered work to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space where each person guides the pace of sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small changes that can improve mood and functioning.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices are also available to help with emotional regulation and staying grounded in difficult moments. Holly adapts conversations and plans to fit what each person needs. That can mean short, focused exercises to try between sessions or longer work on recurring patterns.
She also pays attention to how life transitions, career stress, and caregiving burdens affect wellbeing. Her experience includes working with people who have attention challenges, mood disorders such as bipolar, compassion fatigue, and reactions after sexual assault or traumatic brain injury. Holly also addresses complex presentations like co-morbid conditions, dissociation, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and personality concerns.
Sessions are offered in English and are delivered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and will help new clients get started with a short matching questionnaire.
Practical approaches for online care
Holly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to make online work feel personal and goal oriented. Client-centered work focuses on listening and shaping sessions around what matters most to each person, which helps build trust and decide priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses clear, manageable exercises to change patterns that keep people stuck.Finding the right approach is part of the process rather than a fixed decision up front. Holly will work together with each person to select methods that match their goals, comfort with tools, and daily routines. That collaborative process includes checking in and adjusting strategies as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer practical flexibility. Video lets people use face-to-face interaction when helpful, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or school demands while still using evidence-informed approaches.
