About Allie Giza, LGSW
Allie is a licensed graduate social worker (LGSW) with focus on young adults with cancer, survivors, and caregivers, with emphasis on holistic methods of mental health care. Allie uses eclectic modalities focused on trauma-informed and strengths-based care with her clients.

This led her to begin volunteering with children with cancer and subsequently pursuing a master’s in social work.
