Hi there, I'm Alicia!

I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT), and I have worked with clients with a wide variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, substance use, eating disorders, relationship problems, co-parenting, divorce, grief, and trauma (physical, emotional, sexual). As a therapist, I provide a safe and therapeutic environment that will promote growth, positivity, and healing. I also provide a judgment-free, yet challenging space that will facilitate comfort and self-awareness as you progress. While I may use a combination of different modalities to fit your specific needs, my formal training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Behavioral Activation, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Strength Based Therapy. Reaching out for support is the start of achieving your goals and enjoying a more fulfilled life. I recognize that starting therapy can be a scary process and opening up to someone you don’t know can be uncomfortable. The process of working with a professional can be the spark you need to create the joy and success you desire. This process will open the door for therapeutic healing and success in achieving your treatment goals. My goal is to meet you where you are at and collaborate with you to find the most appropriate pathway for wellness.
