How her approaches shape online sessions

Alicia works with Cognitive-Behavioral methods, which focus on spotting patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing what helps or hinders progress. Solution-Focused work centers on clear goals and concrete steps; sessions often map what is already working and build on it to create quick, practical changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alicia will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and adapt plans based on what the client finds useful. She uses short experiments and skills practice so decisions about method are guided by real results rather than labels.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekly routine, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It also makes it possible to continue work across locations and to combine focused skill practice with planning for real-life situations.
