Alicia has helped me to bring language and validity to emotions, feelings and behavior that otherwise would have gone unchecked and or dismissed as just part of my personality. I am learning and getting to the core of me.

More about Alicia

  • LPC

Greetings,

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family. I have seventeen years of experience working with individuals presenting various life challenges such as abuse, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, parenting, personal growth, and relationship issues. I work with adolescents and adults.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I focus on YOUR goals and dreams, and I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet YOUR specific needs. It takes a lot of courage and motivation to reach out for additional support, and I intend to treat YOU with dignity, respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe everyone can live a fulfilling life, and my holistic approach integrates the mind and body. I will encourage you to consider diet and exercise to feel healthy and whole. It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower YOU.

I look forward to working with YOU!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
