Allyson is the owner of Luna Counseling Solutions. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Virginia.

Allyson Luna received her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with minors in Sociology and Spanish from West Virginia University in 2010. She then went on to obtain her Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology from Marymount University in 2011. After five years of working in mostly forensic settings, Allyson realized that her true passion was building a therapeutic relationship with those going through difficult times and empowering these individuals to meet their full potential. Allyson decided to return to Marymount University and earned her second Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2017. Allyson will pull from various counseling theories and techniques based on an individual’s needs. However, she takes a Humanistic approach to counseling in the sense that there is a focus on an individual’s unique and personal potential for growth, self-love, and psychological understanding. In addition, Allyson frequently utilizes tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that individuals can use to overcome common emotional problems and handle their environment in a healthier way. Allyson’s goal for therapy is to create an open, safe, and judgment-free zone where individuals are free to heal and grow.
