About Alison
Alison Marrelli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with 12 years of experience. She focuses on grief and loss, self-esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, stress and anxiety, and other concerns adults bring from home. Alison aims to help people who are managing practical strains related to relationships, parenting, work, and health.
Alison works from the view that each person knows their story best. In sessions she helps people notice their strengths and use them to meet current challenges. Conversations are direct and practical, with attention to what is happening now and what can change next.
Her approach is aimed at clear, manageable steps. She supports people who are dealing with attachment and abandonment wounds, blended family strain, divorce and separation, and caregiving stress. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, chronic illness, and chronic pain concerns.
People who want focused, goal-oriented conversations about parenting strain, relationship tension, or career stress will find concrete strategies in her work. She also helps with trauma and abuse impacts and with recovery from burnout when caregiving or work becomes overwhelming.
Sessions are conducted in English and based in Utah. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment. Alison uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
Approaches Alison Uses and how online work fits
Alison works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach helps people identify current patterns and build small behavior changes to reduce stress and improve sleep and routine. This method is useful for anxiety, ADHD-related struggles, and managing daily caregiving demands.Another common approach focuses on processing grief and loss through structured conversation and gradual exposure to difficult feelings. That approach supports people coping with bereavement, separation, and major life transitions by pacing difficult topics and linking them to coping strategies.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Alison will discuss your goals and preferences and collaborate with you to pick approaches that feel realistic and helpful for your situation. She evaluates progress and adjusts methods as needed rather than locking into one way of working.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work, and caregiving by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue steady support when life circumstances make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt these techniques to online sessions while keeping the focus on practical steps and goals.
