Luke R. Allen PhD
I have completed 1 year of post-doctoral training with a focus on exposure-treatment for anxiety, obsessive-compulsive, and related disorders. Additionally, I am currently enrolled in the Virtual Professional Training Institute (VPTI) provided by the TLC Foundation, which is designed to train professionals in treating body-focused repetitive behaviors. My experience includes independent study and ongoing training to ensure the best possible treatment for patients with OCD and OCD Spectrum Disorders.
My practice offers 100% teletherapy (i.e., online counseling). Approximately 10% of my clientele present with intrusive or obsessive thoughts, OCD, or body-focused repetitive behavior.
I primarily provide individual therapy with late teens and adults. In addition to LGB+ concerns, I also specialize in working with transgender and non-binary youth and their families on matters related to gender identity.
I am a Certified World Professional Association for Transgender Health Care (WPATH) GEI SOC8 Member. I have extensive training, research, and clinical experience working with transgender and gender-diverse youth, adults, and families, and frequently provide training or mentorship to others.
