About Alison
Alison Marrelli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with grief, low self-esteem, life changes, compassion fatigue, stress, anxiety, and anger. Alison speaks English and works with adults seeking clearer ways to manage strong emotions and difficult transitions.
She approaches work practically. Alison starts by listening to what matters most and identifying strengths a person already has. Sessions focus on skills that reduce reactivity, improve coping, and increase everyday confidence. Conversations are straightforward and aim to make next steps clear.
Alison draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, stress, and relationship concerns. She helps clients break problems into manageable parts, practice new responses, and track what helps over time. This approach is useful for people dealing with grief, burnout, ADHD-related stress, and recurring anger.
People who come for help with parenting stress, career strain, or sleep and eating issues work on specific habits and small behavior changes. Alison also supports those facing attachment or abandonment wounds and people negotiating kink and alternative sexual cultures without judgment. She includes practical coaching when it fits the person's goals.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Sessions are provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
Practical therapeutic methods and online sessions
Alison uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on skills and behavior change. One common approach is skills training that teaches concrete reactions to strong emotion - for example, grounding techniques and breathing to reduce immediate anger and steps to rebuild calm after an outburst. This helps when temper flares at work or home.She also uses structured problem-solving to break down recurring conflicts. That involves identifying triggers, testing small behavior changes, and tracking how those changes affect stress and relationships. It is useful for workplace frustration, relationship tension, and managing chronic stress.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alison will discuss what has helped before and tailor which techniques to try based on the client's goals and daily life. She encourages experimenting with short practices between sessions and reviewing what works together.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to help clients maintain consistent work on anger and stress without promising a particular format.
