About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is a licensed professional clinical counselor with nine years of experience.

Background and approach
The therapist works with issues like ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy questions, and challenges tied to identity and LGBT concerns. Alicia draws on attachment-based ideas to notice patterns in relationships. She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness and dialectical behavior techniques are included to teach calming skills and emotion regulation. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She likes to set small, clear goals and check progress regularly.
Sessions mix talking, practical exercises, and skill practice that clients can try between appointments. People who reach out can expect to be treated with respect and without judgment. Alicia emphasizes strengths and gradual steps toward better coping.
She helps clients identify what matters most and build a plan that fits their life.
Approaches that translate to online care
Alicia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and low mood. CBT sessions usually include clear steps, homework, and tools you can use between appointments.She also draws on attachment-based work to look at how past and current relationships shape reactions. This approach helps people understand patterns and try new ways of connecting and responding in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Alicia will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in on what’s working and adjusts plans as therapy moves forward.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill teaching. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth or movement is a concern. Live chat and messaging allow short check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or continued practice between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping focus on real-world progress.
