I have experience helping children of all ages, teens, adults, couples and families.
Are you seeking a happier life? Sometimes we realize that our way of handling challenges is just not working. Major loss or life changes are hard. For some of us, the disconnection we experience with loved ones actually prevents us from feeling loved. Maybe you are a parent with a child that struggles, and you’re just not sure what else to do. Therapy can help with personal and relationship challenges. Therapy can give you the tools and strategies to help you live the life you want and and the life you deserve.

Hi, my name’s Alicia! I believe in meeting people where they are in their lives. I am a huge champion of challenging and empowering youth to be independent, confident, and their own person. I like to create a team environment using a collaborative approach with the youth and family. Together, we can strive to build a solid foundation based on trust, respect, compassion and being open minded. There is nothing more exciting when a child recognizes their potential in themselves and finds their voice! I utilize evidenced based modalities such as CBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and behavior modification strategies.

I have training in child development, supporting parents, teaching, as a child life specialist responding to families having a family member with a medical diagnosis, counseling and play therapy, postpartum adjustment and mood disorders, trauma, grief and loss, abuse, developmental delays and ADHD, and supporting parents having an infant in the NICU.
I have over 20 years of experience working with children and families. I work from a strength based perspective and focus on identifying goals and then taking small achievable steps to work towards progress and a sense of accomplishment. I use play techniques with children to elicit their perspectives and develop a plan for building new understandings. I strive to support the development of problem solving skills and strategies for coping. I use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation and other current strategies such as mindfulness with both children, families and individuals to bring about positive changes.
