Caitlin MacAllister

Counseling Intern

Caitlin MacAllister brings a decade of experience working in the field of substance use treatment within inpatient settings. She is passionate about working with individuals struggling with addiction, anxiety, ADHD, grief, chronic illness, and relationship challenges.

 

Throughout her career, she has supported individuals and families as they navigate the challenges of substance use, early recovery, and access to community resources. Her experience and education has shown her that the impacts of trauma are often at the root of many emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges, so her clinical practice is focused on understanding and healing the pain that lies underneath unwanted behaviors.

​

Caitlin is committed to creating a safe, trauma-informed, identity-affirming environment where clients can be their authentic selves and feel empowered in their healing journey.​ Her counseling approach is grounded in strengths-based, mindfulness, and relational practices. She believes in helping individuals recognize and build upon their inherent strengths to facilitate growth and overcome life’s obstacles.

​

Outside of her professional work, she volunteers with local mutual aid efforts and enjoys spending time traveling, reading, gardening, and hanging out with her rescue cats, Bean and Yzma.
