The Pearl Crescent Butterfly

Have you seen the Pearl Crescent butterfly? It's a native species to Central Texas and can be spotted fluttering around the stunning wildflowers that bloom in the Texas Hill Country during Spring. Butterflies are often associated with change and transformation, starting their journey as caterpillars and eventually metamorphosing into beautiful creatures that spread joy wherever they go. It's truly inspiring to witness their journey of growth and transformation.

My name is Alison Lough and as a licensed professional counselor and supervisor in Texas, I pursued my passion for psychology by obtaining a bachelor's degree from The University of Texas. Despite working in the fast-paced Energy Trading industry for several years after graduation, I never lost sight of my desire to help others. This led me to pursue a master's degree in psychology at Houston Baptist University, where I further honed my skills and training to become the therapist I am today.

My area of expertise is in providing treatment for both teenagers and adults who are dealing with various mental health concerns.

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Trauma/Abuse

  • Relationship issues

  • Adjustment to life changes

About Me

In life, we often face challenging situations that can harm our self-confidence, self-worth, and sense of identity. My goal is to provide support in navigating these challenging times and help you rediscover your strengths and sense of self. I will assist you in recognizing and understanding the origins of harmful beliefs about yourself and the world. Moreover, I can guide you in deeper self-exploration, developing healthy relationship skills, confidently communicating, and setting appropriate boundaries to promote better self-care and life satisfaction.

I specialize in treating teenagers and adults who struggle with a variety of issues, such as low self-confidence, anxiety, depression, trauma or abuse, relationship problems, and adjusting to life changes. My therapy techniques are drawn from a range of therapeutic approaches, including attachment theory, CBT, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.

We will confront those difficult emotions directly. Together, we will enhance your self-assurance to communicate more effectively and assertively express your needs and desires to others, while also recognizing your values and strengths. With this increased confidence, you will be unbeatable in accomplishing your objectives
