Allison Guilbault
this is the yes, I am too much™ revolution
Every time a woman in history was too much,
she changed the world.
Hey! I am Allison.
If you're just finding me and you're new to my space, I hope this page feels like a warm hug and an invitation to something you know you've been looking for but haven't quite been find.
A little 411 on me.
Among my official titles are Licensed Therapist, Author, International Speaker and Top 10% Podcast Host. But the real story is bit more unhinged and certainly nontraditional.
I have four degrees relating to psychology, brain science and human behavior and two Masters Degrees in Forensic Psychology + Mental Health.
I started my career as a sexual assault crisis counselor in a New York City Emergency Room and went on to teach sex ed to teenagers at Planned Parenthood, a time that I am very thankful did not have iphones yet, because no one needs to see how I put a condom on a banana while a hundred teens stare at me.
I wrote my thesis with the Federal Bureau of Investigation on sexual violence against women and did my clinical internship at Rikers Island in solitary confinement.
I have held clinical positions at New York University,
Mt. Sinai Hospital, New York Presbyterian, the National Institute of Health and New York City Correctional.
I was accepted into the FBI, Homeland Security, NYPD Special Ops and the New York State Troopers.
I even spent a decade in corporate whistleblower investigations, working in conjunction with the U.S. Government before turning my career back to clinical work.

The Power of Too Much
By the time I returned to psychology and mental health, I had spent years moving through emergency rooms, prisons, hospitals, universities, government investigations and corporate cases.
Different rooms. Different circumstances.
Very different women.
And yet despite their differences, I realized one very central thing: for far too many women, no matter who they were, what they were doing, or how far they've come, they are left burning the candle at both ends, hanging on by a fingernail, and still staring up at the ceiling at night wondering, how is this not enough?
And yet, the moment they find themselves feeling like they're finally ready to put on the bikini, raise their voice, ask for the raise or demand more from their partner, there is a sucker punch to the gut of divine worry that they'll come off as too much.
And what has taken me a really long time to realize, and the mission I stand on now, is that that only works if women continue to negotiate with it.
Which is why my work is now rooted in something I call
The Power of Too Much, which explores why so many women still distrust the parts of themselves that are deemed too intense, too emotional, too dramatic, too sensitive, or simply too much. And what would happen if we stopped treating those parts as something to fear and control, and just trusted them instead?
The Power of Too Much
Now, I spend a lot of time creating places, spaces and programs that serve up the antithesis of that energy and offer an exit door out of the madness.
A place where you can learn what it means to live inside your life rather than exist alongside of it. Where you can escape the constant torture of overthinking and over-committing and start living with a whole lot more audacity and a whole lot less apology. Where your emotions are always valid and your intensity isn't seen as a weakness.
But mostly,
I want it to be a place where you remember how to
purr, smile, roar, laugh, orgasm, dance and play.
Ultimately, I hope Yes, I Am Too Much™ becomes a space where you can feel more connected to your personal uniqueness and every part of you that has ever been deemed too much.

THERAPY
(New Jersey Residents Only)
This is for women who cringe at the idea of someone wearing a cardigan and a blank stare asking "How does that make you feel?"
I am not the typical therapist and my style is not for everyone. I am more informal than you may be used to. I curse. I tell you things about myself, when appropriate. I might even ask to see pictures of your cat. But I also know how to make someone feel safe and seen enough that they hear themselves admitting things they are shocked they are saying aloud. I know how to hold space, ask questions and when to shut the fuck up. I talk more about exploration than I do coping and work best with clients who are looking to do work that extends beyond healing.
I gift all clients a 20 minute consultation which serves as a vibe check for us both. But rest assured, even if I am not the right therapist for you, I love sharing referrals and resources even if we do not end up working together.
⚠️ Please note: I do not take insurance, and new clients must commit to a minimum of six months of sessions.
VIP 1:1 Personal Mentorship
I created this mentorship program for the version of me that was desperate for someone to help me navigate my life, choices, career, relationships and patterns only to be left with programs that were designed for women that sounded nothing like me. If you having been finding the same, this program is for you.
Since the program is as unique as you are, what you will get out of it will change with with the season you are in. You are free to talk about the perils of motherhood. Brainstorm a wild idea you have that you are too scared to tell anyone else. Role play the meeting you are having with your boss. Figure out how to get out of the bedroom rut you are in. Hold my hand as you create a new online dating profile. Or just let me help you figure out what dreams you want to grab at next.
You will have access to my calendar so access to me revolves around when you need it. We will workshop problems in real time. Celebrate your wins to get your energetic juices flowing. And brainstorm the most direct and easy path to getting you a life that is as extraordinary as you are.

Untamed Alchemy™ is an intimate, intentionally designed experience for women ready to ignite feral permission, wild audacity, and fierce clarity in the glorious backdrop of the Balinese jungle.

Each experience is hand-built to be intensive, emotional, and wildly transformative: deep emotional work, cultural immersion, and personal exploration that will wake you up, shake you alive and have you looking at life from an entirely new perspective.

Here's what clients have to say:
Hands down, Allison changed my life. It didn't feel like therapy but it didn't feel like advice either. It just felt like I had someone who got me, and gave me courage when fear got in the way. In the time that we worked together, I started my own business. Allison never pushed me, but she did lead. She would help me navigate not only the emotions around starting something so new, but helped me with logistics and held me accountable too. I have full plans to work with Allison again in the future and can't wait to see what she offers next.
