My experiences include working with adults with mental illness and mood disorders, assisting with crisis stabilization, case management and supportive therapy.

My treatment approach is client centered in that I try to meet every client where they are at and build them up.

I believe that all people are capable of change and can provide the support and guidance to assist clients to make those changes.

Alicia is wonderful. She listens and is helpful but she also pushes me to work on things I need to. I’ve had several therapists and she is by far the most helpful I’ve had. Very flexible.
