Existential ideas help people clarify values and life direction when facing big choices.

How mindfulness and skills-based work translate to online therapy
Alicia uses mindfulness therapy to help slow down racing thoughts and ground attention in the present moment. That approach often involves short guided exercises and attention to breath or body awareness to reduce reactivity and calm anxiety.
She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT helps with depression, panic, and stress by giving clear steps to test thoughts and build new routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia treats therapy as a collaboration and will help you decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time based on what is working and what needs to change.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow for brief check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people practice skills in real-life settings between meetings. Licensed professionals can tailor sessions so tools learned in therapy are easy to use in everyday life.
