About Alicia

Alicia Collins Wong is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with nine years of experience in mental health. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and a range of related concerns including codependency, addictions, and self-esteem. Alicia aims to meet people where they are and to build practical plans that fit daily life.

She offers a flexible, person-centered style. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the client. From there Alicia and the client shape goals and try strategies that match strengths and limits. She uses straightforward tools rather than jargon, and she checks in often to make sure the work feels useful.

Alicia draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and dialectical behavior methods are used to teach coping skills for strong emotions and stress.

Her background includes nine years of clinical practice in Ohio settings. The LPCC credential stands for Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and indicates state licensure in Ohio. Alicia works with a wide range of concerns from grief and parenting stress to mood conditions and trauma-related symptoms.

People who prefer a direct, practical approach tend to fit well with her style. Alicia emphasizes collaboration, steady skill-building, and realistic steps for day-to-day life. Readers are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking to match logistics with therapeutic needs.

How Alicia’s approaches translate to online work

Alicia uses attachment-based and cognitive behavioral methods that adapt well to remote sessions. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and helps people understand how early connections affect current reactions; it can help with codependency, intimacy issues, and communication struggles. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Alicia listens to a client's goals and life demands, then suggests methods to try together. She will also adjust strategies over time so the work stays relevant and doable for each person.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills between appointments in the settings where they live and work. Licensed professionals, including therapists, can tailor session pacing and tools to suit how a person prefers to engage with therapy.
