Alicia Broadus-Duckworth

Alicia Broadus-Duckworth

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


As a licensed clinical social worker, I understand the importance of providing exceptional care that is both compassionate and empathetic. I am currently licensed in North Carolina and Virginia. I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.

During my academic years, I worked as an assistant to the court psychologist at the Department of Juvenile Justice in Charlotte, NC. I had the opportunity to assist with juvenile court reports and attend court hearings for youth offenders. I also worked alongside mental health professionals mentoring underserved youth in underrepresented areas of Mecklenburg County. Following my undergraduate degree, I gained extensive experience in various pediatric behavioral health settings, providing therapeutic interventions and community-based rehabilitative services. I have over 12 years experience providing mental health assistance and treatment to our military population and their family members, who have been impacted by domestic violence, child abuse, child neglect, anxiety, depression, PTSD, conflict, anger, relationship distress, and adjustment issues. In addition to therapy, I have experience working in federal behavior health policy and research.

I believe therapy should be a safe space where individuals can openly and honestly discuss most aspects of life to enhance their mental wellbeing. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, and I work closely with each individual and couple to identify their unique needs and establish the best therapeutic approach. Despite my training in various modalities focused on grief, couples, anger, and trauma, I prefer to use cognitive-behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy techniques in my work with couples and individuals.
