About Alicia

Hello, my name is Alicia, and I have experience working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I have experience working with people who have experienced many different types of trauma such as abuse, violence, grief, or many other terrible things that life throws at us. I also have experience helping people who struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, and other mental health struggles.

I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. I believe that because we are all unique individuals, we require a unique and individual approach to healing. I take pride in my eagerness to learn different ways to help my clients. I have training and experience in EMDR, DBT, CBT, psychotherapy, mindfulness, and general talk therapy.

I believe in meeting people where they are at. Whether that means just meeting to vent or processing deeper emotions. I am ready when you are and I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your healing journey.

"I look forward to helping you on your healing journey with compassion, empathy, and understanding because we are all humans navigating life together. "

Get to know Alicia

Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?

I have a passion for helping others navigate through life.

What types of clients do you work best with?

I strive to work effectively with all types of clients.

What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?

Healing in therapy is not linear. Therapy is difficult, but that is where you begin to grow.

What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?

In our first session, we will take a lot of time getting to know you and what brought you to therapy. We will talk about your goals and what you would like to gain from therapy. We will spend as much time as needed to create a safe place for healing.

What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?

I value autonomy, compassion, and saftey. I strive to create a safe space for my clients to heal.

How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?

I simply ask them what they would like to gain from therapy and what they would like in a therapist.
