More about Alicia
- 3 years' experience

- LICSW
My name is Alicia and I am a bilingual (Spanish) Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with a wide range of experience. I have experience working with a diverse clientele which include prenatal to age four, dual diagnosed individuals, children, active-duty military and veterans (including their families), and adults with mild to severe psychiatric illnesses.
I received my Master of Social Work from Boston University with a focus on Clinical Social Work. My specialties include working with substance use disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and stress. I am trained and certified in Prolonged Exposure Therapy to help treat PTSD. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, CBT-Pain Certification, Brief Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, and traditional talk therapy.
I am first-generation American, and my family migrated from the Dominican Republic. I have a strong belief in everyone receiving a fair shake at life and a passion to help others overcome adverse experiences.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
