More about Alicia

  • 11 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in Florida and I have been conducting therapy since 2011. I enjoy helping individuals, families, and groups with problems they do not feel they can solve for themselves. Everyone has their own strengths and sometimes it is difficult for them to find them. Let’s start with a plan for success. In addition, I enjoy working with teenagers, people with disabilities, and anyone who just needs someone to listen.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
