About Your Group Leader: Alyson

This group will be run by Alyson Lacko (AMFT #134002). Alyson believes that therapeutic work is inherently political, especially in a world where politics can greatly impact the mental well-being of not only ourselves but the communities we live in.

Alyson's training and education had strong foundations in social justice oriented approaches, and she hopes to use this experience to support a group of individuals during what feels like very dark times.
