Online support
Attachment-informed care and flexible online options
Alicia draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns in relationships and how childhood connections affect current bonds. This approach helps people understand why they react a certain way and learn gentler ways to connect with partners and children.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person's own goals and experiences. This method focuses on listening, acceptance, and helping people find their own solutions for issues like self-esteem, career decisions, or family conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when helpful to identify and change unhelpful thoughts that fuel anxiety or depression, and to practice new behaviors in daily life.
Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. Alicia will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, adjusting over time based on what works best. The plan is shaped together, not prescribed in advance.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read nonverbal cues and have full conversations, phone sessions require less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging can fit short check-ins or busy schedules. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and travel while still focusing on attachment, relationships, and coping skills.
