About Allison Ravech
Combining Compassion + Care
Hello, and welcome to my site. I'm Allison Ravech, a dedicated psychotherapist serving the Rhode Island area. My passion lies in facilitating healing and supporting individuals in reaching their fullest potential. I consider it an honor to support the clients I work with, approaching each therapeutic relationship with genuine openness and acceptance. Providing a warm and culturally sensitive environment is my utmost priority in engaging with all clients.
my experience
My extensive experience spans various settings, including outpatient psychotherapy, inpatient psychiatric treatment, research environments, and the juvenile justice system. Additionally, I had the privilege of teaching second-year medical students at Brown University Alpert Medical School for five years, imparting compassionate communication skills to future physicians.
I firmly believe that non-judgmental and compassionate care should extend across all realms of healthcare. It is my unwavering commitment to foster a culture of empathy and understanding throughout every aspect of the healing process.
