Alanna Masony
Alanna believes that healing begins in the experience of being seen, understood, and accepted without having to leave parts of yourself behind. She believes that the patterns we develop often emerge for a reason, even when they no longer serve us, and that meaningful change begins with understanding these patterns. Through therapy, Alanna hopes to create space where clients can deepen their relationship with themselves and develop a greater sense of connection, agency, and authenticity in their lives.
Alanna’s therapeutic approach is rooted in a relational framework that emphasizes authenticity, collaboration, and the importance of the therapeutic relationship itself. Her work is informed by how attachment and nervous system responses can influence our relationship with ourselves and others. She utilizes elements of Internal Family Systems (IFS) to approach internal experiences with greater curiosity and compassion as well Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to support emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
Alanna has completed Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Level 1, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) training for couples, and attachment-focused Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) training.
Alanna’s clinical experience includes community-based mental health care, where she supported individuals navigating chronic mental health conditions, as well as school-based services, where she provided therapeutic support to adolescents and their families. Her clinical experience includes supporting individuals navigating mood disorders, complex trauma, identity exploration, suicidal ideation, as well as interpersonal and relational challenges. She works with adolescents ages 13 and older, adults, and couples.
Alanna received her Master of Social Work from Florida Gulf Coast University and has spent the past 5 years working in the social services and mental health field. She is currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Montana and Florida.
