Alison Niesen

Hi, I’m Alison. Clients often come to me feeling stuck in old patterns, weighed down by anxiety, or overwhelmed by life changes. My approach is warm and practical, focused on giving you tools you can use right away while creating long-lasting progress in your healing. I am EMDR certified and trained in CBT and DBT, with specialized experience in trauma recovery, relationship challenges, infertility, and perinatal/postnatal support.

‍

I’m licensed as a Clinical Social Worker in both Minnesota and Arizona, and I take a holistic approach that values balance in both mind and body. Outside of sessions, I’m a mom to a busy toddler, and I enjoy movement, mindfulness, and time outdoors — practices that keep me grounded and shape the way I support my clients.
