Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm Alicia ! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). Prior to individual practice, I worked in the ER as a Behavioral Health Crisis Clinician helping stabilize individuals who were experiencing a mental health crisis, as a Mental Health Counselor at a Transitional Care Clinic helping support individuals recently discharged from the hospital, and as an On-Call Crisis Counselor for victims of domestic violence & sexual assault.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I primarily work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, and PTSD. I utilize a solution-focused, strengths-based approach stemming from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and in some cases Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Through counseling, I offer you a safe place to explore, heal, and achieve your goals and empower you in the process.

What you can expect from our first session

Using multiple treatment models, we will work collaboratively to help you gain insight on your thoughts, relationships, emotions, and behaviors. Therapy is personalized to ensure it is the most appropriate and effective way for you to reach your goals. If you feel ready to take the next step, I am here to support you on your journey. Let's work together to find the path forward.
