Allison Gilbert
Marriage/Family Therapist
I am a counselor in Santa Cruz with offices in both Santa Cruz and Soquel. In 1994 I took 10 years off from my counseling practice to be a stay at home mom. In 2004, I started practicing again and created a website called "MothersHaveNeedsToo.com" and wrote a book for new moms. After being back to my practice for five years, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in 2009 and am now in full remission. I am Jewish and have been a student of Jewish Mysticism and spirituality all of my life and feel this helped me get through my cancer treatment. I work with people of all different religions. Today I find my own home in Hasidic philosophy and Kabbalah, studying with Shimona Tzukernik & Shifra Hendrie.

Rates & Insurance
Breakthrough has not yet partnered with all insurance companies, but you or the therapist you select may contact your insurer about covering your online care. We strive to accept all insurers but we can not guarantee coverage.
If you receive care on Breakthrough but your insurer declines coverage, you will be billed at the therapist's self-pay rate.
If you can not find a therapist who accepts your insurance, call us at 1-888-907-3208 and we will try to find a therapist who can see you.
