I have had the pleasure of working closely with Dr. Allison Shapiro, assessing and treating individuals with severe post-traumatic stress. She is a wonderfully talented communicator, teacher, and therapist. Dr. Shapiro's warm, energetic, and humble personality makes both her clients and colleagues feel as if they are talking to a good friend.
