Background and approach
Alicia listens for what matters most and helps shape steps that feel doable. Her work has included helping people with attention differences, anger, eating concerns, and recovery from abuse. She also talks with clients about career stress, burnout and compassion fatigue.
Financial worries are part of her practice too, and she can discuss basic financial coaching skills alongside emotional work. Alicia draws on several approaches to tailor care. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships affect emotional life.
Cognitive behavioral tools are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy support emotion regulation and calm. She practices across Idaho and brings many years of varied clinical experience to each session.
Alicia aims to make therapy understandable and practical, so people can try small changes that add up over time.
How Alicia’s approaches fit into online therapy
Alicia uses attachment-based ideas to explore how relationships shape feelings and reactions. This approach helps when anxiety or grief is tied to trust, closeness, or patterns learned in relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, mood shifts, and worry because it breaks problems into clear steps and actions.Choosing the right approach happens together. Alicia will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. She adjusts techniques over time so the work stays useful and relevant to daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging work for brief check-ins, ongoing skill practice, or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to keep a regular schedule and continue progress despite busy days.
