About Alison
Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with four years of experience, Alison Klettner helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She focuses on self-esteem, coping with life changes, and mood-related struggles. Sessions are conducted in English and are informed by evidence-based therapeutic techniques.
Alison supports clients who are facing anger, guilt, shame, or feelings of abandonment. She also works with people feeling isolated or unsure about life purpose. In sessions she concentrates on practical steps to build self-love and healthier patterns over time.
Her work draws on methods supported by research to address mood disorders and everyday stressors. Conversations are aimed at identifying unhelpful patterns, developing concrete coping skills, and testing small changes between sessions. Faith and personal values may be part of the conversation when relevant to the client.
Alison places attention on emotional wounds linked to abandonment, forgiveness, and shame. She helps clients name those experiences and practice different responses. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who prefer a straightforward, process-oriented approach may find her style fits. She prioritizes clear goals, practical tools, and check-ins about what is and isn’t working. To begin, follow the site directions to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions
Alison works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clearer thinking. One common approach she uses helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and replaces them with more balanced thinking; this is useful for anxiety, low mood, and self-critical thoughts. Another approach centers on emotion processing and behavioral experiments to test new ways of relating and coping; this can help with relationship difficulties, feelings of abandonment, and shame. Finding the right approach is collaborative. Alison will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before choosing methods together. She adjusts techniques over time based on feedback and progress so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single method. Confirm the session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or evenings. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed or avoid video when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Ask about the specific session options available when you schedule.Sheet 3
