About Alicia

Alicia Collins Wong, LPCC, brings nine years of experience in mental health to her work with individuals. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, anger, and other intense life challenges. Alicia uses straightforward talk and practical tools to help people feel steadier and more in control.

Her style is personal and flexible. She meets each person where they are and builds a plan that fits their goals and strengths. Sessions focus on real problems and steps a person can take between meetings.

Alicia uses methods drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered care, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness approaches. She draws on these tools to help people improve relationships, mood, and day-to-day coping.

She pays attention to issues that often come with complex life histories, such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment difficulties, and neurodiversity like autism or Asperger syndrome. Alicia also addresses concerns around intimacy, body image, addiction, and chronic pain or illness.

People can expect a therapist who listens, offers practical strategies, and adapts the work as needs change. She practices in Ohio and conducts sessions in English. Prospective clients are asked to follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Alicia draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT often focuses on clear, practical steps to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change patterns that aren’t working.

She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current trust and closeness. This approach helps people understand patterns in relationships and try different ways of connecting that feel safer and more satisfying.

Finding the best approach is a team effort. Alicia will work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts plans over time so the work stays useful and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into daily life by reducing travel, making scheduling more flexible, and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone keep therapy consistent through life changes and appointments can often be arranged around work or caregiving demands.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
