About Me
I’m Allison, a Professional Life Strategist and community host. I support entrepreneurs and professionals as they navigate the emotional ups and downs that come with building a business, advancing a career, pursuing education, and creating a meaningful life.
After nearly 30 years as a psychotherapist and building my own successful private practice, I have learned something important: success isn’t really success if everything else in your life is falling apart.
What you build matters—but so do the relationships, emotional well-being, faith, and life you are building around it.
That is why I created Communities for Growth.
Here, you’ll find different spaces designed around shared interests and needs. Whether you are looking for professional connection, personal growth, accountability, faith-based community, or support as you pursue your next goal, you can find a space that fits your season.
You don’t have to build your dream alone. Here, you can find knowledge, encouragement, connection, accountability, and—when welcomed—prayer as you work toward the business, career, education, relationships, and family life you desire.
Why You Should Join Me
Welcome to Communities for Growth
A place to connect, grow, and pursue your purpose without doing it alone.
Communities for Growth houses a variety of spaces where people with shared interests, professions, goals, and values can gather to exchange information, encourage one another, and grow together.
Some of our spaces are industry-specific, while others focus on faith, personal growth, professional development, entrepreneurship, or work-life balance. I encourage you to find the spaces that fit you, join the conversation, share what you know, ask questions, and offer encouragement. Community works best when we are willing to both give and receive.
Our Christian Foundation
Communities for Growth is a Christ-focused network, and our community values are grounded in biblical principles. Some spaces, including our Bible studies, are specifically dedicated to the Christian faith.
You do not have to be a Christian to participate in the broader community, and you are welcome here. We simply ask that members respect the Christian foundation upon which this community was built.
We recognize that people may hold different viewpoints. We can disagree while remaining respectful, gracious, and kind. Everyone is fighting a battle we may know nothing about, so our goal is to engage in ways that build one another up rather than tear one another down.
For many members of this community, God is the ultimate authority, and the Bible informs how we understand faith, life, relationships, and purpose. The activities and values of this network will therefore remain consistent with its biblical foundation.
