I practice in Kentucky. Currently accepting new clients. My practice assists adults who are seeking therapy for anxiety, depression, stress management, and personal growth.

I believe that the therapeutic value of one human helping another is without parallel. I have a" care- frontational" rather than confrontational approach. I set a safe and caring environment for individuals to explore who they are and re-frame their core beliefs, thus becoming a better version of themselves.

I often utilize a combination of approaches to challenge unhealthy ways of thinking (cognitive distortions) and to better help client understand their behaviors. Through this approach I commonly encourage “homework” out of session to practice of strategies learn in session.

Focusing less on the past and more on the future. I often used to explore and utilize strengths the client already possesses to work on identified issues.

Hello, I'm Dr. Alicia Moran, a licensed clinical professional counselor at Cognitive Organics. Guided by the wisdom of Jung's words, "There can be no transforming of darkness into light, without emotion," I specialize in unraveling the intricate threads of emotional intelligence.

Embracing emotional intelligence is not just a skill; it's a transformative state-of-mind that shapes thoughts and heightens emotional awareness. I advocate not for change but for understanding and acceptance.
