Getting to know Terri-Lynn Allen

My name is Terri-Lynn Allen, and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Maine, seeing clients statewide through telehealth. I hold a Master?s in Social Work from the University of New England. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, stress, and trauma, using DBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy to help my clients identify barriers to reaching their goals. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use DBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy, as these modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality and allow us to work together to chart a path forward. My focus I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for adults who may be dealing with the challenges of life transitions and daily stressors. This often takes the form of anxiety, depression, and simply feeling overwhelmed. I work to help my clients navigate these transition periods and build skills that allow them to feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook on life. My communication style When communicating with you during sessions, I will be attentive and listen without judgment. I want my clients to feel safe discussing anything. When appropriate, I will use humor but can also be serious and provide honest feedback. At times, I will assign homework to help reinforce the skills we have worked on during sessions. My journey to mental healthcare I decided to become a therapist because I have always enjoyed helping others be the best version of themselves. As far back as being a peer counselor, working in crisis, and volunteering with TIP, I was drawn toward helping others. My goals for you You know yourself best, so when setting goals, we will explore where you are and what you would like to accomplish. This begins by building the therapeutic relationship and getting comfortable with what it means to be in therapy.
