Our Services
Allison has experience working with a wide range of psychiatric conditions, with a particular focus on treating anxiety, self-esteem issues, trauma-related disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, certain disordered eating behaviors, mood disorders, and individuals seeking to balance their professional and personal lives. Her philosophy is, "I treat people, not just diagnoses.”
Medication Management
Allison has extensive experience working with individuals facing a variety of psychiatric conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, eating disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and substance use disorders. Allison attempts to reduce the number of medications a person takes by taking advantage of known medication side effects. Her clinical vision is to ensure that her office atmosphere is safe for clients and their families to experience their vulnerabilities while sharing their stories.
Therapy
Allison integrates cognitive, behavioral, and interpersonal psychotherapy interventions into her psychiatric care as part of comprehensive medication management. When clinically appropriate, she incorporates evidence-based approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to address obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Allison is also EMDRIA-trained and may integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) into treatment alongside medication management. EMDR is a structured, evidence-based therapy that involves briefly focusing on distressing memories while engaging in bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or vibrations) to support adaptive processing.
Consulting and Collaboration
Sonder Psychiatric Services offers guidance to clinics that cannot add a psychiatric prescriber to their team but want to learn how to treat patients with mental health concerns effectively.
What makes Sonder Psychiatric Services Unique?
At Sonder Psychiatric Services, we provide compassionate, individualized mental health care that blends therapy and medication management in one seamless experience. Our practice is built around quality, collaboration, and flexibility—ensuring that each client receives the time and support they deserve.
Integrated Therapy and Medication Management
Unlike many practices that separate therapy from psychiatry, we specialize in providing both services in a single appointment. This integrated model allows for deeper insight, more personalized care, and fewer barriers for clients needing comprehensive treatment.
Flexible Appointment Lengths
We recognize that every client has different needs. That’s why we offer a variety of follow-up appointment lengths:
Standard Follow-Up: 30 minutes
Extended Sessions: 45, 60, or 75 minutes available upon request, clinical indication, and provider availability.
This flexibility allows us to tailor each visit to your goals—whether you're working through a challenging period, starting a new treatment, or engaging in therapy alongside medication support.
*** Please note that Sonder Psychiatric Services has a wait-list for extended sessions.
