Allison Weyward

Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) · Connecticut

Therapist

Allison is a queer, provisionally licensed therapist who believes the work should be accessible, affirming, and built around the person in front of her rather than a template. She works with adults and older teens, in person in Torrington and Farmington and by telehealth across Connecticut.

What working with Allison is like

Allison leads with strengths, not deficits. She draws on a wide range of approaches and adapts them to how you actually think and feel. She treats reaching out as an act of courage, and she meets you without judgment, at whatever pace the work needs.
